Student Success

ABC's The Piano:

The highlight of 2024 and 2025 was Molly's appearance on ABC's The Piano. Molly and I were flown to Sydney in September 2024 where she was filmed playing at Sydney metro station. A film crew then travelled to Warragul where they filmed Molly with her pet budgie, Biscuit. It was a rewarding experience and an honour and pleasure to share Molly's piano playing with the wider public.
