The Music Department at Rosmini College is a thriving department that offers curricular and extra-curricular opportunities for all students. As well as being able to take Music as a subject, boys are encouraged to learn an instrument and be involved in the many extra-curricular groups on offer.
Curriculum Music Courses
We have classroom music courses designed to cater for all musicians, from beginners to experienced performers. All students in Years 7 and 8 take a half-year course of Music and from Year 9 onwards, the students are able to select Music as a subject choice. All courses cover a range of curriculum areas, including performance, composition, music history, aural and theory skills.

From choirs for all levels and abilities (Junior Choir, Rosmini Chamber Choir and Carmini Choir - a joint Rosmini and Carmel Choir) to orchestra and jazz bands (Rosmini Orchestra, Junior Jazz Band, Jazz Combo). We also have a number of rock bands who perform at school events. All extra-curricular ensembles have the opportunity to perform at festivals and competitions such as The Big Sing and the KBB Band and Orchestra Festival, as well as assemblies and other school performances.
