“The future belongs to young people with an education and an imagination to create”
– Barack Obama
The CAPA Faculty at Ingleburn High School is a diverse and multifaceted educational hub for Creative Arts Students. As a faculty we believe being creative is a future focus skill and the arts has the capacity to inspire and enrich lives beyond the classroom. As a faculty we aim to develop students who are:
Creative and Curious
Productive and Responsible
Goals
- The study of music’s forms, styles and ideas encourages Students to develop an interest in, appreciation of and enjoyment of music and its history.
