Our extra-curricular highlights
Debating and public speaking
Students can develop their thinking, communication and teamwork skills through debating and public speaking. They also have the chance to compete in local and state events.
Creative and performing arts
Our drama, music and art programs help students be creative and express themselves. Each year we showcase the students' creativity alternating between an art show and live whole school performance.
Trips and excursions
Our students enjoy getting out of the classroom to explore, learn and try new things. These experiences help them grow, build confidence and see how their learning connects to the world.
Birchgrove Music Program
The music program provides opportunities for new and experienced students to learn a wide range of instruments and join a variety of ensembles and bands. Students get to build their confidence with different performances and events throughout the year.
