Extra-curricular activities

Band

Padstow Heights Public School has a school band.

Students can try out for the band and join from Year 3. Students commit to short daily practice sessions at home. They attend tutorials during the school week and rehearse as a whole band one morning a week before school commencing at 8:15am. They commence in the training band, or Junior Band and in subsequent years they progress to the Senior Band. Students who have been playing for 2 or more years may be chosen for the Performance Band. Members pay fees for tuition. Instruments may be hired from the school.

The band is led by Mr Brian Hunt, a professional musician. The staff coordinator is Ms Daisy Patterson.
