At Belmont City College, we have high expectations of our students and staff, who embrace our ethos – to demonstrate pride in themselves, their school and their community.
Let’s work together to foster an environment where every student can feel safe and thrive academically, socially and personally.
This year’s partnership with Perth Festival was once again a fantastic opportunity for Belmont City College students and staff. Through the Schools Partner program, the school received free performance tickets, complimentary private transport, private access to world-class exhibitions, and Professional Learning opportunities for staff, helping connect our learning areas with oustanding arts experiences in Perth.
Students from Year 9, 11 and 12 Drama, and Year 11 and 12 Visual Arts and Design attended several performances and exhibitions. Highlights included Le Nor by The Last Great Hunt, a live “faux foreign film” blending humour, romance and theatrical creativity while exploring life in a world affected by climate change. Students also visited Perth Institute of Contemporary Arts (PICA) to experience Under Waters by April Phillips, an immersive installation imagining an ancient ocean-covered Earth and celebrating water as the source of life. They also saw Scenes from a Climate Era presented by Western Australian Youth Theatre Company (WAYTCo), a fast-paced series of scenes reflecting on life during a changing climate through the voices of young people.
We are grateful to Perth Festival for making these experiences possible, and we congratulate our students for their curiosity, engagement and enthusiasm throughout the program.
