A school (or system) that is unwilling or incapable of providing a good grounding in both the "hard"; logic and analytical subjects and the "soft"; creative, perceptive and feeling-based subjects, is not going to equip our children for the future. Both need to be combined in a well-rounded way, otherwise the school and the educational opportunities it offers will become increasingly irrelevant.
The creative and visual arts program offered at Mt Carmel used to define the school. Not so much today. If resourcing the program means re-establishing Years 7 to 12 then so be it.

I'm very keen for the school to regain a choir that all students can be part of, and would be interested in the 3 - 6 students having a dedicated art teacher

Can we have a Mad night twice per year. Students having music lessons at school should be pushed to participate. Although as a parent we push our own children the influence of teachers/the school would be very helpful.
