Student opportunities and activities
At Box Hill Public School, learning goes far beyond the classroom. We’re passionate about giving every student the chance to discover their strengths, explore their interests, and connect with others through a wide range of exciting activities.
From creative expression to critical thinking, teamwork to leadership — our programs are designed to help students shine.
In our first year, students have enjoyed a growing range of opportunities, including:
- Chess Club – sharpening strategic thinking and problem-solving skills.
- Dance Groups – building confidence, rhythm, and school spirit.
- Choir – developing teamwork and a love of performance.
- LEGO Club – encouraging imagination, collaboration, and STEM learning.
- Student Leadership – giving students a voice and empowering them to make a difference.
- Excursions and Incursions – connecting classroom learning to the world around us.
- Sports Enrichment – promoting teamwork, skill development, and healthy competition.
As our school grows, so too will the range of clubs, teams, and enrichment opportunities available to our students. Every Box Hill learner has the chance to get involved, build friendships, and be part of something special.

Our extra-curricular highlights
Debating and public speaking
In 2026, we’re proud to be joining the Premier’s Debating Challenge through the NSW Arts Unit for the very first time, giving our students the opportunity to showcase their skills and represent our school in local and state competitions.
These experiences build confidence, creativity, and leadership — empowering our students to speak up, stand tall, and make their voices heard.
Creative and performing arts
Our talented students can take part in school concerts, art showcases, choir performances, and dance groups, sharing their skills with the school community. Beginning in 2026, we’re excited to extend these opportunities even further as our students represent Box Hill Public School in regional and state music festivals.
Through the arts, our students learn to collaborate, express ideas in new ways, and shine on stage and beyond.
Trips and excursions
From science adventures at Longneck Lagoon to hands-on learning at Calmsley Hill City Farm, our excursions spark curiosity, build independence, and create lasting memories. Each trip is carefully planned to deepen understanding, inspire wonder, and make learning come alive.
