Igniting a lifelong passion for the arts in every student
At Coombabah State High School, our thriving Arts program is led by passionate and dedicated teachers who inspire students to create, perform, and excel. With pathways in Dance Excellence, Visual Art, Instrumental Music, Drama, Film & Media, our students engage in hands-on learning experiences that connect classroom creativity with industry-based practice.
From Years 7-8, students are introduced to the Performing and Visual Arts through foundation classes that build confidence, creativity, and collaboration. In Years 9-10, opportunities expand with specialised courses in Drama, Dance, Music, Visual Art, and Media, allowing students to refine their skills and interests. These pathways prepare students for senior study, where they can pursue applied and academic subjects alongside industry-focused certificate qualifications.
