St Julie's Performers were crowned overall winners of the NOW Festival, the city-wide annual celebration of mental health, after delivering a breathtaking performance of Behind Closed Doors. 

The powerful and thought-provoking piece explored the lives of young carers, offering hope to those who hide their struggles, and left the audience in tears before earning a standing ovation. 

St Julie's also received the coveted WOW Recognition Award for their standout performance.

We're very proud of the power of the piece as we recently celebrated achieving the 'Young Carers in Schools Award' and believe this performance offers a far reaching voice to articulate the often hidden challenges faced by young carers within our school community and beyond.  

Well done to all the schools and performance groups who shared such inspiring stories, it truly was a celebration of the city’s talent and creativity.
