Extra-curricula Activities
The school encourages a number of extra–curricular activities. A variety of team and individual sporting pursuits are provided, all leading to state level. An annual drama production, House musical afternoons, concerts, jazz bands, instrumental music tuition and a range of choral groups comprise a comprehensive performing arts program. A structured camps and tours program is offered at year 7 – 10, and international student exchanges are arranged with sister schools in Germany, Indonesia and Japan. An annual Arts Festival and special subject weeks, for example Science week, Book week or Maths week provide an extension to the curriculum program.
Enrichment experiences are an important part of school life and include Enterprise Education, Young Achievers, Rostrum of Youth, debating, Tournament of Minds, national Mathematics and Science competitions, community service and a boat building program.

Famous quotes containing the word activities:
“As life developed, I faced each problem as it came along. As my activities and work broadened and reached out, I never tried to shirk. I tried never to evade an issue. When I found I had something to do—I just did it.”
—Eleanor Roosevelt (1884–1962)
