Arts and culture are a cornerstone of a well-rounded education at King David Schools.
Through theatre productions and a broad range of cultural and creative opportunities across our primary and high schools, students are encouraged to express themselves, collaborate, and develop confidence and discipline.
King David’s cultural scene is designed to ensure every student feels seen, every voice gets a stage and every talent has the opportunity to be explored and expressed.
Our pre-primary schools offer a range of cultural intra- and extra-mural activities during the school day and after school.
Our primary schools ensure that children who thrive on the stage or in the music or art room can shine both during school and through the various extra mural offerings such as drama, art, debating, public speaking, music and choir.
In the high school, a diverse offering of subjects, electives, clubs, and extra-curricular activities provides students with many ways to engage with school life and explore their interests.
The school’s one act plays, internal competitions, annual dance and theatre productions and annual Culture Fest showcase our students’ phenomenal talent. There’s also plenty of scope for creative expression with stage props, sound and lighting for those who prefer to work backstage.
King David High School also offers a wide variety of other cultural activities such as dance, creative writing, arts and pottery, photography, book club, public speaking, debating and philosophy.
Visit our school pages to find out more about the cultural and creative opportunities offered at each school.
