A quick update on OSIC 2026!

After an incredible 2 years of events, we've made the difficult decision not to run the OSIC series in 2026. As a small, family-run team balancing full-time commitments, delivering a national series year-on-year at the level OSIC deserves isn’t something we can currently sustain.

The support, energy, and talent across our 2024 and 2025 series has been incredibly inspiring, and it’s been a real privilege to see so many students take the stage. We now look ahead to 2027, with the possibility of bringing OSIC back as a biannual series!

To everyone who’s been part of the journey so far, thank you. We appreciate your encouragement, and we’re excited for what’s to come! 🎶

That’s a wrap for 2025! 🎉

It’s hard to believe we’ve reached the end of our very first National Championship! From the state finals to the big stage, it’s been such an amazing series and we are beyond grateful to all the students, families, teachers, and schools who have supported us along the way.

Watching so many talented young musicians perform with heart, passion and dedication has been an absolute joy - you’ve truly made this first National Championship something unforgettable! ❤️

A huge thank you to everyone who travelled near and far, cheered, encouraged and celebrated the amazing young talent we have in this country. Your support is what makes OSIC possible, and we can’t wait to see what’s next for all of our incredible students.

Here’s to many more years of music, growth and inspiration! 🎶✨

After launching as a Victorian event last year, it’s incredible to see so many of our past state winners returning to the stage in 2025! 🎶

To recognise their previous achievements, students who placed in the same age category in 2024 are marked with their medal icon in this year’s program. 🥇🥈🥉
