Many of our students love extending their artistic pursuits beyond the curriculum, working with new and various mediums and materials to refine their artistic skills. Many of our student works are submitted to external competitions throughout the year.

‘C21’ is short for ‘Twenty-first Century Skills’. These are skills that recent research promotes as vital for thriving in an evolving digital and vocational world. The Deep Learning Competencies of critical thinking, creativity, communication, citizenship and collaboration are all crucial to success in future work and study for our students. Specific activities such as debating, software and digital design, chess, robotics, and problem solving are all available to students in this activity.

This activity provides opportunities for students to serve in the school community, as well as the wider community, in meaningful and beneficial ways. Heritage partners with a number of local community groups to expose students to needs in the community and guides them as they volunteer acts of service for the benefit of others.

Students in this activity perform and refine their skills with a chosen instrument(s) or vocals. They also collaborate together in bands to rehearse for performance at school events such as Assemblies, end-of-year Celebration, and concerts for our community, as well as external events where they represent the school.

Photography is a growing artistic area that promotes the development of an artistic process in planning, shooting, editing and proofing photos for personal and school-related use. We also enter a range of our student work to external competitions throughout the year.

This is a focused program for students who represent the school in a specific sport, especially those in a team. It provides the time and space to practice with other students, to become teammates and prepare for upcoming competitions.
