The Arts play an important role in the life of the College. We have a yearly College Production (alternating between Primary and Secondary) – recent performances being “Seussical” (Primary) and “The Sound of Music” (Secondary).

Music is a core subject taught from Prep to Year 8, and an elective subject from Year 9 to 12.
All students in Year 7 receive an instrument and lessons through the year and weekly band rehearsals as part of this program. Students can then elect to continue receiving instrumental lessons beyond Year 7. Music tuition is also offered for guitar, drums, singing and piano for students of any age within the College.

There are regular concerts and musical soirees where students of all ages come together and showcase their talents as they perform in a variety of formats including instrumental bands, ensembles, jazz band, choirs and individual or small group performances. A highlight of the Performing and Visual Arts calendar is our annual “Heatherton Creates” week which incorporates all aspects of the Arts in a week of student displays, daily participatory events and evening performances.
