24 MAY 2023 Performing Arts

The Performing Arts co-curricular program is growing in student numbers as participants build on and refine their creative abilities in music, acting and dance. I recently spoke to several students who are involved who said the highlights have been making connections with other students in the school and having the chance to express themselves creatively. The Performing Arts building is open every lunchtime; students can participate in the activities or simply enjoy being audience members. New members are always welcome and are encouraged to step outside of their comfort zones to try something new.
