Arts Day ‘Be Fearless’
Excitement is building across the College as students prepare for the much-anticipated Arts Day, set to close out Term 2 on Thursday 19 June, in spectacular style. With this year’s inspiring theme, Be Fearless – Unleash Your Emotions, each House is diving into creative rehearsals, readying their House Song and House Dance to express the full spectrum of emotion and talent.
The day promises a vibrant celebration of The Arts, as students also engage in a variety of workshops designed to spark creativity and connection. It’s a chance for every student to step boldly into the spotlight, embrace vulnerability, and showcase the power of fearless self-expression.
