Music
萌妹社 offers one of the Gold Coast's most extensive music programs, featuring a dedicated team, enthusiastic students, a diverse music curriculum, and state-of-the-art facilities that set the standard in the industry. We take immense pride in the vibrant department we have cultivated.
Music transcends the mere arrangement of notes; it serves as a medium for conveying ideas, beliefs, and emotions. Our music program is committed to providing numerous opportunities for our students to express these elements through rehearsals, workshops, competitions, and performances.
萌妹社 students enjoy a wide array of options to engage in bands, orchestras and choirs spanning various genres, styles, and skill levels. It's worth noting that a significant number of our Year 12 graduates opt to pursue tertiary-level music studies, and we believe that our music program plays a pivotal role in preparing them for continued excellence in their chosen instruments.
