Our commitment to the Arts is demonstrated through various co-curricular activities and opportunities as much as through curriculum subjects. These take place through our Academy of Performing Arts, which helps students to develop the disciplines required to work in performance settings. Students develop their creativity and talents, applying them in various productions and performances to provide real-life experiences.
All students at »ÆÉ«Ö±²¥ÍøÕ¾ have the opportunity to learn an instrument in their formative years as part of our Beginner Band and String Programs. This takes place in Year 2 (all string instruments) and Year 4 (all brass, woodwind and percussion instruments).
Through this program, students not only learn to play several songs on their instrument, but they also develop their music theory skills, aural skills and rhythmic abilities. They learn how to play and perform as part of an ensemble, a skill that develops hand-eye coordination and develops social interaction.
Dance
Students have the opportunity to experience the excitement of rehearsing with other dancers who are committed to extending their dance technique, creative skills and performance level.
Performances are an integral part of »ÆÉ«Ö±²¥ÍøÕ¾ Dance, and all group members perform in a variety of community and school-based events. »ÆÉ«Ö±²¥ÍøÕ¾ Dance fosters a spirit of cooperation, self-discipline, self-respect and a sense of responsibility and helps to foster joy and a sense of accomplishment among participants.
