Come and feast on a showcase of the Arts at Grace in 2016.

You are invited to an intimate afternoon recital featuring our Vocal and Instrumental Tuition students, as they share the work they have been so carefully crafting.

At night, enjoy the Year 10 Wearable Art parade, where you can vote for your favourite artwork from this creative class and get a taste of the talent exhibiting at the Art Soiree later in the year.

Get wowed by Dance Showcase: featuring our Eisteddfod commended Dance Troupe, Dance Club and the best work from inside the classroom.

The evening features a range of cinema from competition and the classroom. Soak up a wonderful selection of Music from Vocal Group, trophy-winners Concert Band and String Ensemble, extension ensembles Jazz Band and Drum Line as well as classroom-based pieces.

Fresh from the Sunshine Coast Schools’ Drama Festival Drama Middle and Senior school Drama students will present their adjudicator-recognised pieces ‘The Picture Frame’ and ‘The Quality of Mercy’.

Commenced in 2008, the Caboolture Campus provides a quality, Christian learning secondary College to the families in Caboolture and surrounds. With a “village community” feel to the campus, all the students are well known and valued by all staff.

Students at Caboolture are able to experience a Lutheran education from Prep to Year 12 with St Paul’s Primary School right next door to Grace College Caboolture. That way, the children are very familiar with their environment and feel comfortable with the school, values and options available to them.

The students can enjoy state-of-the-art facilities that have been designed with the learner in mind, combined with contemporary building principles, the latest trends in flexible educational spaces and a range of learning technologies.

Core teaching areas are supported by Science and Computer Laboratories and our elective areas are enhanced by specialist facilities for Art, Home Economics and Industrial Technology. A dedicated Dance and Drama Studio, equipped with the latest in digital lighting technology, supports our excellent Performing Arts programme.
