Drama
Drama at Ormiston College
Private or group co-curricular drama is offered to interested students. The drama students have the opportunity to enter eisteddfods and participate in accredited drama examinations. Various productions and presentations are also held throughout the year.
Music
Music at Ormiston College
Ormiston College encourages all students to acquire a lifelong love of music. Specialist music teachers inspire and equip students to become the best musicians they can be.
In doing this, music becomes a highly valued component of their lives both at school and beyond the classroom and, as a consequence, students develop skills in the areas of socialisation, self-expression and creativity, critical and subjective thinking, concentration and self-discipline. We believe the pursuit of excellence in music to be an essential part of a holistic and integrated education for all students.
Music Tuition Program
Ormiston College provides a comprehensive and expansive Music Tuition Program. The College’s Music Tuition Program has long had a reputation for producing outstanding results and engaging students as lifelong musicians.
