Co-curricular
Learning beyond the classroom A Carey education is about more than just academic studies. Preparation for future life must include an awareness of the importance of maintaining a balance between intellectual and physical stimulation, ‘left brain’ and ‘right brain’ activities, study and recreation. Under the co-curricular umbrella, Carey students involve themselves in music, drama, community service, debating, theatre production, outdoor education, sport and several other activities promoting physical activity such as yoga, dance and bike riding.

All students in Middle and Senior Schools must elect a summer and winter activity, and most will explore well beyond the minimum requirement. It is not unusual to continue a year-round participation in aspects of the performing and creative arts, and to balance this with an involvement in a diverse range of sporting activities chosen from a list of more than 20.
