Creative arts

In creative arts, students discover a variety of art forms through a study of dance, drama, music and visual arts.

Studying the creative arts, students learn to appreciate, compose, listen, make and perform. Each art form has its own unique knowledge and skills, elements or concepts as well as a capacity to inspire and enrich lives.

Students must study 100 hours of both music and visual arts during Years 7 to 10. They also have an opportunity to further develop their knowledge and skills in other art forms through elective subjects including drama, dance, photography and visual design. Students can then select from a range of courses in Years 11 to 12.

Rooty Hill High School is situated on Darug land. The Rooty Hill High School community would like to acknowledge the traditional custodians of the land on which we have the privilege to live, work and share each day. Staff and students strive to uphold the actions of our Reconciliation Action Plan. Our commitment extends from the classroom, to the school grounds and into the community. We show respect to Country by ensuring that all staff and students take responsibility for and engage with annual events to contribute to the ongoing learning that takes place in the classroom. We acknowledge and work on maintaining strong relationships with members of the community and our Elders that assist with continuing our Aboriginal Education journey. We would like to pay respect to all Elders who have come before us; they inspire us to make a positive cultural and educational change.
