Inverell High and MacIntyre High School students took part in the large-scale performing arts event, Pulse Alive, last week which showcased the talents of K to 12 public school students from across the state.
In its fifth year, the event promotes equity and inclusion by offering students of all abilities the opportunity to shine on stage and showcase their passion and talents in music, dance, visual arts and public speaking.
In preparation for the big event, schools were provided with choir teaching tracks, sheet music, teaching tips and/or a dance choreography video package and notes as well as given the option to participate in face-to-face or virtual rehearsals, with the full cast coming together only on the day of the performance.
The Arts Unit Student Access and Engagement Advisor Simon Kermode says 2026 was a huge year for Pulse Alive with a 3,000 student increase on last year adding this year was the first time the event ran over three nights due to the increase in participating school and students.
