Students are actively encouraged to participate in a variety of cocurricular activities enriching the mind, body and spirit for a 'whole of life' educational experience.
Music & Performing Arts:
Music is an area where our students flourish. We greatly value our music program here at SPCC Snowy Mountains. It assists students to develop memory, including spatial memory and encourages mathematical ability. We endeavour to foster a love for music that will be carried with the students for years to come.
One of our most anticipated events is our annual ShowCASE night. This event occurs during Term 4 and provides an opportunity for our students to Showcase their musical items they have been working on throughout the year.
SPCC Snowy Mountains also holds a bi-annual Musical production, which all students across the school are invited to participate in.
Public Speaking:
SPCC Snowy Mountains encourages speaking, debating and advocacy as part of an ongoing leadership program. We offer an extensive program of public speaking, debating and advocacy, which begins in kindergarten and continues throughout the school. SPCC Snowy Mountains students enjoy the school’s annual Public Speaking competition and have been successful in the Rostrum Public Speaking Competition and the Cooma Rotary Debating Competitions.
These are not stand alone competitions but are part of the overall desire for our students to become the leaders that our world needs.
Sport:
Our students can follow a defined pathway to sporting excellence. We have students who have reached representative, State and Australian standard, in a variety of sports. Our students participate in Swimming, Cross Country and Athletics events. Thanks to our proximity to the NSW Snowfields, our students can also enjoy a unique Snowsports program available in Term 3, participating in either skiing or snowboarding lessons and development programs catered specifically to their needs.
Service:
Service is a very important component of our learning, and our response to God’s instruction to love our neighbour as ourselves. SPCC Snowy Mountains has a Student Service Council, led by the students, which plan and facilitate acts of service and care for the rest of the school and local community. It is a place for students to develop servant leadership and to hone their leadership, organisational and management skills. Students on the SSC lead school assemblies, organise and run events like Mufti Days, fundraisers and end of term activities
