High Cross College Music Council

For those selected by the music department to be on the music council, it is an honour and a recognition of your musical talent and leadership abilities.

The music Council isn’t just about music; it also focuses on leadership, organisation, and coordination.

Students learn vital life skills, including communication, teamwork, and time management, which benefit them in the wider community and working world.

Event Coordination

Council members are responsible for organising school music events, providing hands-on experience in event planning, logistics, and rehearsing.

Their role isn’t to do everything. It’s to get everybody involved in it under their guidance and support.

These skills are transferable to careers in event management, marketing, and production.
