The school provides additional activities throughout the year. These are subject to availability of personnel and expertise to conduct these activities. They are sometimes linked to major events in the wider community. Other activities are provided as focused programs with the aim of using teacher, parent and community expertise to offer activities that let students gain skills in various fields and areas of interest. The school newsletter and class notices will at various times provide information and seek support. External providers offer a variety of after school activities. The school newsletter provides details of these to parents.
Our vision for every student is to ensure they are provided with opportunities to extend and enhance their learning. Below is a list of some of the extracurricular activities at Baringa State Primary School. Some groups are only available for specific year levels; others may require an audition and some have limited spaces.
