Trips and excursions
Our students enjoy getting out of the classroom to explore, learn and try new things. These experiences help them grow, build confidence and see how their learning connects to the world.
Band Program
Our School Band program offers a musical journey from beginner to confident young musicians! The BandTime program uses the Concert Band format with weekly full band rehearsals and smaller group tutorials led by expert instrumental specialists. The Training Band enjoys a Bandtastic excursion and has the opportunity to play alongside students from other schools. Students also have opportunities to perform at school events in front of parents and peers, and the performing band can attend Band Camp in Term 3.
