The real beauty of music in high schools lies not in the actual music, but instead in the memories and friends created. Keep these in a special place within you.
The Instrumental Music Excellence program is designed to provide a clear pathway for students who are interested in Music. Our curriculum focus is on participation, learning about all aspects of music and creating a team environment in which to nurture the skill of the individual.
We welcome all students who are interested in exploring Music throughout their high school years and who are willing to build community spirit through performance.
Students in the program study all core subjects (Maths, Science, History and English) as well as Music in a streamed class of Instrumental Music Students until the end of year 9. They will graduate with an equivalent Year 10 result and may continue to study Music Extension, or gain a study line to focus on other subjects.
