More than 830 district students come together for two days of workshops, culminating in two spectacular performances on Thursday.

The aim of the NSW Department of Education Art Unit’s program is intended to inspire students to excel.

Performing to more than 800 people across the showcases, it was hailed a resounding success.

Before the showcase, students from Kinder to Year 12 were engaged in workshops in drama, dance, music and film.

Pulse was the perfect lead in for this week’s NSW Public Education Week, which is designed to celebrate the role schools play in inspiring the leaders of tomorrow.

The 2026 theme is ‘Inspiring Excellence’.
