An initiative of the Catholic Schools Office, Diocese of Maitland-Newcastle, ASPIRE provides a range of opportunities for students with a passion for the Creative and Performing Arts including performance opportunities, workshop programs, concert band and vocal ensembles, competitions and in-school support.
ASPIRE is focused on inspiring creativity in and encouraging young people to create original work across all art forms. Each year, ASPIRE creates an original production through which students can audition to be a part of through dance, design, drama, vocal, stage band and production ensembles.
“ASPIRE is a community. It is a safe space for students to collaborate, to get creative, and to discover new things with people who all share the same love for performing and doing it together. That’s what makes ASPIRE so special, it’s so much more than a group of young people, it’s like a second family. “
Ivy Jones, Vocal Ensemble Member
