Co-Curricular Activities
Creative & Performing Arts
At Assumption College, we take immense pride in celebrating the creativity and talent of our student performers and artists, recognising the vital role that the arts play in shaping well-rounded individuals. Whether it’s through captivating performances in our College theatrette or showcasing their skills on the grand stage of the Plenty Ranges Arts and Convention Centre, our students are given countless opportunities to shine.
We are committed to fostering a love for the arts by offering an extensive range of creative and performing arts co-curricular programs that inspire students to explore their passions, develop their creative and technical abilities, and build confidence in their unique talents.
Music, Bands & Choir
Our College is home to a vibrant community of musicians, vocalists, and production crew members. Through our co-curricular music programs, students have the opportunity to develop their technical and performance skills while collaborating with peers to deliver unforgettable live performances.
Our talented students showcase their abilities at events such as:
- The annual Assumption Day Talent Contest
- School liturgies, masses, and assemblies
- Special school events at both indoor and outdoor venues
- Private music lessons are also available, offering students the chance to refine their craft and perform at the annual College Soiree. However, please note that private lessons alone do not qualify as a co-curricular activity.
Theatre
For students passionate about acting and performing arts, we provide the perfect stage to shine. Our co-curricular theatre program encourages students to develop their performance skills through improvisation, collaboration, and shared passion.
Each year, junior and senior students have the opportunity to participate in a full-scale drama production. Whether performing on stage or working behind the scenes with costumes, sets, and props, students gain valuable experience in all aspects of theatre.
Dance
Our co-curricular dance program welcomes students of all experience levels, from beginners to seasoned performers. With professional costumes, sound, and lighting, students are challenged to grow as dancers while forming lasting friendships with like-minded peers.
The highlight of the program is the annual Dance Concert, held at the Plenty Ranges Arts and Convention Centre in Term 3, where students showcase their hard work and talent.
Debating
Photography
For students with a creative eye, our co-curricular photography program offers the chance to explore the art of capturing moments. Open to students in Years 8-12, the program teaches both creative and technical photography skills.
Student photographers are encouraged to document College life through their lens, with their inspiring work proudly featured on College social media and in official publications, such as the Yearbook.
