MUSIC
Rossmoyne SHS has a vibrant music program that offers students a wide range of opportunities to develop their music skills. All students enrolled in music participate in class music, receive instrumental tuition and participate in a range of ensembles. In recognition of the ongoing excellence of the program, from 2008 Rossmoyne is designated as a Department of Education and Training Specialist School in Classical Music.
Music students participate in a range of performance opportunities, such as the ABODA Music Festivals, the Department of Education and Training’s OPUS Concert, recitals at St George’s Cathedral, and concerts at Perth Modern School and in the Rossmoyne Performing Arts Centre.
To prepare for these performances students engage in rehearsals, workshops and music camps. The annual Music Camp has become a well established and popular tradition at Rossmoyne. In 2009 the camp will be held at Woodman Point Recreation Camp site.
The new Performing Arts Centre was opened in 2004 and comprises two large teaching areas, a rehearsal room, five teaching studios and a 200-seat auditorium. The facility is well suited to orchestral music in particular.
Prospective Year 8, 2009, students who reside in the Rossmoyne Senior High School zone may apply for inclusion in the Classical Music Program following their enrolment. A limited number of places into the Classical Music Program will also be available to students living outside the school boundary who demsontrate special ability and interest. These students are required to submit applications for entry early in Term 2, 2009, and will be selected through audition. Further details are available from the school upon request.
