The Arts<\/h1>\n[\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text css=”.vc_custom_1763554860218{margin-bottom: 0px !important;}”]IBM\u2019s Global CEO Study (2010) found that creativity is the most crucial factor for future success in our ever-changing world. CEOs are called to lead with creativity, connect with customers in imaginative ways and design their operations for speed and flexibility to position their organisations for twenty-first century success.<\/p>\n

The good news is that creativity is a skill that can be learned and Rondebosch Boys\u2019 High School facilitates an environment where it is practiced daily. This includes three academic subjects, Art, Drama and Music, various clubs and societies, cultural assemblies and tours, drama productions, the annual Visual Art Exhibition and numerous musical events throughout the year.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Art<\/strong><\/h3>\n

Art students have access to the Art rooms before and after school through the use of a coded door. Senior students work alongside younger students and the Art teachers are usually available to provide guidance and assistance until 16:00.<\/p>\n

Once a month, we attend First Thursday exhibitions in Cape Town. All boys are welcome to attend and entrance to the galleries is free.<\/p>\n

Putter Studio is an independent creative space run on the campus by Andrew Putter.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Drama<\/strong><\/h3>\n

We have collaborated with our sister school, Rustenburg Girls\u2019 High School, to create some wonderful productions. Other events during the year include the interhouse plays, Talent Show and outings to theatrical performances to encourage a love of the theatre and an appreciation of the Arts.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Music<\/strong><\/h3>\n

Our Music Department has a proud history of producing musicians and ensembles of an enviable standard. We offer individual tuition in woodwind, brass, strings, voice, guitar, drums and percussion. The department is located in the Reeler Music Centre \u2013 a purpose-built, well-equipped facility, which boasts classrooms, teaching and practice rooms, a large Band Room, a Music Technology Computer Lab and the 150-seat Reeler Theatre.<\/p>\n

We have an extensive Ensemble programme, which is an integral part of our tuition programme. By using the skills which they are taught in their individual lessons, instrumentalists and singers gain practical experience in making music with others. The majority of ensemble rehearsals take place in the morning before school.<\/p>\n

Besides performances for school events, engagements at community events and tours, the department has an ongoing series of termly concerts and cultural events<\/a><\/strong> throughout the year.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner][vc_empty_space height=”50″][vc_row_inner][vc_column_inner width=”1\/2″][mk_faq view_all_text=”” sortable=”false” faq_cat=”the-arts-left”][vc_empty_space height=”50px”][\/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=”1\/2″][mk_faq view_all_text=”” sortable=”false” faq_cat=”the-arts-right”][\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row css=”.vc_custom_1562152468876{padding-top: 100px !important;}”][vc_column][vc_row_inner][vc_column_inner width=”1\/3″][mk_image_switch src_first=”https:\/\/rondebosch.com\/high\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/14\/2019\/08\/events.png” src_second=”https:\/\/rondebosch.com\/high\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/14\/2019\/08\/events-over.png” image_width=”” image_height=”” crop=”false” link=”url:https%3A%2F%2Frondebosch.com%2Fhigh%2Fcultural-events%2F|title:Cultural%20events||”][\/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=”1\/3″][mk_image_switch src_first=”https:\/\/rondebosch.com\/high\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/14\/2019\/08\/tours.png” src_second=”https:\/\/rondebosch.com\/high\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/14\/2019\/08\/tours-over.png” image_width=”” image_height=”” crop=”false” link=”url:%23|||”][\/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=”1\/3″][mk_image_switch src_first=”https:\/\/rondebosch.com\/high\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/14\/2019\/07\/clubs.png” src_second=”https:\/\/rondebosch.com\/high\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/14\/2019\/07\/clubs-over.png” image_width=”” image_height=”” crop=”false” link=”url:https%3A%2F%2Frondebosch.com%2Fhigh%2Fextracurricular%2Fclubs-societies%2F|||”][\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner][vc_empty_space height=”50″][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][mk_page_section bg_image=”https:\/\/rondebosch.com\/high\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/14\/2019\/07\/stay-bg.png” bg_position=”center top” bg_stretch=”true” padding_top=”70″ padding_bottom=”70″ sidebar=”sidebar-1″][vc_column][vc_row_inner el_id=”tickets”][vc_column_inner css=”.vc_custom_1562162948532{padding-right: 70px !important;}”][vc_column_text css=”.vc_custom_1566812855931{margin-bottom: 0px !important;}”]\n
