As the curtain slowly fell, we were reminded that, amid the vastness of space and the immensity of time, we are fortunate to share the same planet and this moment of music together. The theme of this year’s House Unison, Space and Beyond, celebrates the limitless possibilities of exploration and the boundless nature of dreams. When curiosity, imagination and collective creativity come together, every student becomes a light illuminating the stars.
