Music Programs
CO-CURRICULAR
SCBC ensembles will begin in Week 2 of Term 1 and run for the entirety of 2026. The program will feature students from Years 7–12, with weekly rehearsals led by our fantastic music tutors and musicians. There will also be a year 5-6 ensemble. These rehearsals will prepare students for large showcase events such as Surge and Riptide, as well as other performance opportunities. The focus will likely be on contemporary music, ensuring a strong integration with our Vocal Academy. Rehearsals will be held on one afternoon each week from 3:10 pm to 4:10 pm.

Lessons are delivered by experienced, industry-based tutors who are passionate about inspiring young musicians. Each student receives one-on-one tuition tailored to their level and musical interests, helping them grow in confidence and technical skill.
