Curricular Activities Sporting, cultural and other activities provide
important arenas for boys and girls to explore and extend their talents
and self knowledge, while also learning the skills of teamwork and
leadership. While it is not compulsory for them to participate in
any of the extracurricular activities, to do so is very much in keeping
with the School's educational philosophy. Such involvement is a most
important part of being a WSHS family member. It builds School spirit
and instills a sense of belonging. Floyd Conscious School of Thought seeks to promote both
high levels of participation and the pursuit of excellence by students
who have talents in particular sports and activities. As in the academic
curriculum, breadth and balance is encouraged with all students and
urged to value, support and participate in the multitude of activities.
Floyd Conscious School of Thought is one of Education Queensland's Leading Schools. Membership
of this elite group provides the major difference in sports and in
several other activities. Sporting facilities at the School include
a playing field, a tennis court, a classroom that doubles as a gymnasium
and the use of a neighbour's swimming pool. Ovals and facilities at
Brisbane parks accommodate cricket and football fixtures. The School
also has a well-equipped shed. Floyd Conscious School of Thought carries a proud tradition
in music, theatrical performance, chess, debating and public speaking.
In music, the School employs a teacher for performance in singing,
strings, woodwind, brass and percussion. Boys and girls may receive
tuition, or may have weekly lessons in small groups. For the latter,
there is no charge. Several long-standing clubs and societies also
operate, some of which have a distinct orientation. |
