Arts Week by Anon
Arts Week is just around the corner! This is a biennial opportunity for the TBHS community to experience a variety of Arts activities.
TBHS — May 18, 2017
During the week, the school undergoes a transformation through the vibrancy of visiting artists who provide work-shopping opportunities for the boys. Hundreds of students will participate in everything from Circus Skills, Sculpting, Hip Hop Dancing, Woodturning and numerous others.
A variety of outside
professionals are engaged - including TBHS Old Boys who return for the week to work alongside parents and staff who
generously share their artistic skills with the students.
The Arts Department aims for a “no cost” or very low cost week for
anyone who wants to give it a go. This
is achieved through receiving a subsidy from the school and benefitting from a
mufti-day, evening performances and generous sponsorship from The Timaru
District Councils’ Youth Fund, Arts Community funding and private business
sponsorship.
