Creative and performing arts
Our drama, music and art programs help students be creative and express themselves. They can join in concerts, art shows and drama activities.
Camden v Cowra Sporting Exchange
One of the highlights on our calendar is the Cowra vs Camden Exchange. This successful program sees a unique bond between the two school communities fueled by friendly rivalry since 1971. The exchange takes place over three days each year, where students compete across a variety of sports for the Montgomery Shield.
Trips and excursions
Our students enjoy getting out of the classroom to explore, learn and try new things. These experiences help them grow, build confidence and see how their learning connects to the world.
Student Leadership Opportunities
At our school, student leadership opportunities empower students to develop confidence, responsibility, and teamwork skills. Through roles such as student council, prefects, and many more, students actively contribute to school life, lead initiatives, and make a positive impact in our community. We encourage all students to get involved and grow as leaders.
