An extensive range of co-curricular subjects, programs and activities is provided to support and expand the central academic curriculum, to enhance learning and to allow students to experience diversity, creating interest and motivation.
We value all students equally. We work towards providing learning experiences and deliberations relevant to their age, gender, interests, stages of personal development and in response to the challenges students may encounter in adolescent life.
Our programs affirm students, acknowledge their gifts and talents and cater for the diversity of ways in which they learn.
Examples of some of the many opportunities available include:
The College Co-Curricular Program provides students with additional learning experiences that enable them to break pre-existing boundaries and further their discovery of self. The opportunities on offer provide a foundation for developing passion and pursuing areas of individual interest.
The College Production takes performance to the next level, providing the opportunity for students of all skill sets to be involved on stage and behind the scenes on a both a performance and technical level. The production extends the learning experience beyond the classroom, providing an authentic opportunity for students of all year levels to showcase their skill, creativity and talent as well as further their development of self. Students who choose to be involved in the production have the opportunity to perform on stage, assist with the design and creation of sets, engage in costume and lighting design, lead the ‘Front of House’, and contribute musically through sound and instrument. The audition, rehearsal and performance segments of the College Production aim to bring our community together, celebrating diversity, creativity and teamwork.
