As custodians of an iconic South Australian tradition, we engage our students in artistic excellence, cultural diversity and social inclusion through performance in Music and the Arts.

With its genesis in 1891 as the Thousand Voices Choir, our program has been an integral part of South Australian life and stands as an official State Icon. The program reaches thousands of primary and secondary students annually and allows students opportunities to perform at prestigious venues, such as the Adelaide Festival Theatre and the Adelaide Entertainment Centre.

There are Festival Choirs in over 300 schools across South Australia, as well as Orchestras and Performance Troupes in metropolitan Adelaide, created by audition from both primary and secondary public school students.

Primary students also have performance opportunities as soloists, hosts, guest artists, in Foyer concerts or as part of The South Australian Public Primary Schools (SAPPS) Choir, our showpiece choir which provides choral extension to auditioned students.
