Arts
The school provides tuition in art, music and drama. Music is taught throughout the school, and is compulsory for all junior students.
Drama is taught as an extempore or scripted class lesson, or in a formal play. Drama productions are staged by Junior and Senior students every year. Each year the four houses present a House Play for the Founders' Day. Supervised by teachers and professional technical crew, students write and produce plays for the Inter-house Drama competition.
