Tours
An overseas tour has been organised every three years and some of the places visited include Switzerland, England, Wales, Austria, France, Germany, Canada, USA, China, Hong Kong, and Singapore. The tours occur every three years and involve Year 10, 11 and 12 Music students.
International tours are a wonderful educational experience for students with the destination chosen for the musical opportunities it offers. The focus of the tour might be exchanges, workshops and classes with other music schools, a competition or festival or a conference. The students are involved in many performances and have always brought credit to the school.
Such an undertaking is expensive and a considerable amount of effort from the families of participating students is needed to raise funds. It is also an enormous amount of work for the staff. A tour is the result of careful research and consideration about the value of the experiences for the students.
