Inaburra has an outstanding co-curricular program in Music with a strong emphasis on performance from K-12 with opportunity for students of all levels of ability to be involved in music making. The school offers four Concert Bands, two Stage Bands, three Choirs, four Percussion Ensembles and three String Ensembles. All school ensembles participate in many performance opportunities throughout the year, within the School community as well as locally, nationally and internationally, with the Senior ensembles having toured to Tasmania, the Gold Coast, New Zealand, the USA and Japan in recent years.
