The Arts
Music and drama are well catered for within the Performing Arts department, an annual school production (most frequently a large cast musical) and peripatetic teaching for those wishing to take up an instrument. The department also runs examination classes in Music, Performing Arts, Drama, Dance, Photography and Music Technology.

Famous quotes containing the words the arts and/or arts:
“The Germans are always too late. They are late, like music, which is always the last of the arts to express a world condition,—when that world condition is already in its final stages. They are abstract and mystical.”
—Thomas Mann (1875–1955)
“The great end of all human industry is the attainment of happiness. For this were arts invented, sciences cultivated, laws ordained, and societies modelled, by the most profound wisdom of patriots and legislators. Even the lonely savage, who lies exposed to the inclemency of the elements and the fury of wild beasts, forgets not, for a moment, this grand object of his being.”
—David Hume (1711–1776)
