Creative Arts Curriculum

Creative Arts gives students experiences in the visual arts, music, drama and dance domain. They have opportunities to explore their creativity in each of these areas. Students learn to appreciate the meanings and values that each art form offers. They perform and express themselves through the visual arts, music, drama and dance. 

At  St Patricks we offer choir groups. Students in upper primary also have the opportunity to audition for our Diocesan ASPIRE group.
