Art
All students participate in art, studying form and format of various artists as well as enjoying, creating and displaying their own works of art. The students' work is displayed in our classrooms for all to enjoy.

Dance 
Our Year 2 and 3 class is regularly invited to participate in an annual Christchurch primary schools dance festival. The children perform a dance choreographed by their teacher around a given festival theme. This is a fabulous experience where the children perform at both daytime and evening performances attended by family and the wider Christchurch community.

Drama
The junior school put on a production every year at the end of Term 4. We invite older students and families to come and enjoy our performance. 

Middle/senior school performing arts
During Term 3 each year all middle and senior class students are involved in this programme which often involves: visual art, dance, drama, script writing, all aspects of theatre, music and technology. Children are encouraged to participate in as many of these learning areas as possible with guidance from the teachers. This culminates in several performances in the library which is transformed into a theatre. Each year a different focus ensures that new challenges are presented and productions show continual development.

Music
We have an active music programme at our school with the recorder and ukulele being taught during class time. The younger students also participate in making and playing their own musical instruments. The students enjoy performing to the school community during assemblies. The school choir is drawn from students in the middle and senior school.

Visiting music teachers
We are fortunate to have visiting teachers who come to the school once a week and give our students the opportunity to learn violin and/or guitar. These lessons need to be paid for separately by parents and it is expected that the students will make a commitment to practising their chosen instrument.
