At Queenscliff Primary School, we believe in nurturing the creative potential of every child through our vibrant Performing Arts Program. Aligned with the Victorian Curriculum structures, our program offers a dynamic blend of music, drama, and dance, providing students with valuable opportunities for self-expression, collaboration, and personal growth.

Engaging Curriculum

Our Performing Arts curriculum is thoughtfully designed to align with the Victorian Curriculum, ensuring students develop essential skills and knowledge across diverse artistic domains, including Music, Drama and Dance. Through dynamic and engaging activities, students experience various forms of artistic expression—from mastering musical instruments and choreographing dances to exploring dramatic storytelling techniques and multimedia creativity.

Creative Expression

We celebrate the unique talents and creative potential of each student, fostering a supportive environment where they can freely express themselves through music, drama, and dance. Our educators guide students in discovering their individual artistic voice, building confidence, enhancing collaboration skills, and deepening emotional intelligence. Participation in the Performing Arts promotes critical thinking, innovation, and cultural awareness, equipping students with the skills to express their ideas and emotions compellingly and authentically.

We proudly offer a vibrant range of performing opportunities, showcasing student talent to the wider community including:

Kindness is Key - Original Song

By our talented QPS students

Year 3-6 students took time to reflect on the year that has passed. Together, they discussed hurtful words or phrases they may have heard in our school or community that don’t align with our values. This led to meaningful conversations about the importance of diversity and how, at QPS, we are committed to accepting everyone—regardless of race, colour, religion, disability, gender, or any other difference.

Inspired by these discussions, the students created vibrant posters filled with positive words and phrases they want to see embraced at our school.

Building on this, a small group of talented musicians from Years 3 and 4 came together to write a song using the messages from these posters. Last week, these students had an exciting opportunity to spend the day in a recording studio, bringing their song to life! This creative project will serve as a powerful learning resource to promote diversity and inclusion.
