Vicki WARD (Eltham – Minister for Prevention of Family Violence, Minister for Employment) (09:48): Congratulations to Glen Katherine Primary School on their fantastic production of The Wizard of Oz. It was a brilliant performance, and it was wonderful to see how confident and talented Glen Katherine students are. I want to acknowledge the principals, Eliza Spear, Dayne Ernest, Oliver Begbie, Lilly Montgomery, Kobi Butler, Piper Ampfea-Sloley, Jasmine Lyons, Ivy Creber, Ella Sutton and Thomas Harding, and the understudies, Lucy McLaughlan, Juliet Lunny, Jed Paterson, Zara Webster, Hamish Beadles, Ruby Jorgensen, Imogen Begbie, Jenna Rowden and Chloe Hansson. It was a fantastic performance, and it does not happen without incredible support. Congratulations to the co-directors, the set design, props and backstage crew, the acting coaches, the choreographers and the costume, background images, set design and administration teams. I want to thank the backstage crew, the student prop and audio teams and everybody who helped out. Congratulations again, Glen Katherine. You were amazing.
