Since its inception in 2017, the ViVA! Performing Arts Program at Southern Cross Catholic College has grown exponentially. ViVA! provides all secondary school students in the Sydney Archdiocese with a part-time option of attending the college in order to study HSC Dance, Drama, Music 1, Music 2 and Music Extension, whilst maintaining their enrolment at their current school.
ViVA! is delivered in weekly block face-to-face classes, with online learning modules, in a blended delivery model that allows students to explore their passion and extend their skills, whilst remaining at their current school.
ViVA! has now expanded its offerings to include Stage 5 (Years 9 and 10) subjects in Music, Dance and Drama.
NEW in 2025
Sydney Catholic Schools is excited to announce that ViVA! will offer Dance XLR8 – an accelerated pathway for exceptional Year 10 students to complete the HSC a year early. They will complete the program across Years 10 – 11, following a comprehensive selection process.
