A Message from the President Welcome to 2009. The Burdekin Junior Esteddfod Committee is in full swing with the preparation for this year’s Eisteddfod which will be taking place between 16 and 31 May, 2009. There will be some necessary changes made to our normal format. Because of the Years 3, 5, 7 and 9 annual testing occurring directly before our dates, this Committee and the Primary Schools have agree to trial a separate competition for the choirs, both Music and Speech. All of the usual Sponsorships, Perpetual Trophies and Replica Trophies will remain in place. The 25th Anniversary Eisteddfod and following Celebrations held last year were exciting and widely accepted, and with Colin Micale spearheading the events we of the older generation learnt quite a lot! Unfortunately (for us anyway), Colin was given a career change offer too good to refuse so has since moved to Brisbane. This year’s Committee will be incorporating many of the innovative ideas put in place by Colin, taking on board the input from the new and younger members and collating that with the 26 years of experience held by the balance of the Committee. So far we are traveling extremely well! As you are aware, our Eisteddfod is held each year to help the youth of North Queensland to showcase their talents, increase their selfesteem and further their stage experiences.
