Hey yeah its a mad school, everyone's very unique there and great. it's mostly semi-underground, underneath the sydney con uni castle thing, which is a rather bizarre but cool location.

I went there for a while but then i got a good scholarship to my present school.

All i had to do was audition on my instrument and do a pretty relaxed interview; but i think they've gotten a lot harsher and more selective since the new principal came in.

But give it a go man its the most unqiue school ever!

Hey man,

I just graduated from there.

The school has gone downhill since our new principal arrived. HOWEVER. Depending on what year you want to go into, I would suggest going along and auditioning, checking out the school and seeing what you think - it can't hurt right?

The process is really just an instrumental audition, then a musicality workshop, and now (they've added this since our new principal arrived) an academic test.

Go check it out, why not? It can't hurt right? It's a place where someone can really develop as a musician and create the contacts and friends you need in the real music world, you know?

I really like the building of the Con..

Wouldn't mind going there myself but I'm happy where I am.

Also heard that enrolments for that school are really low so I suppose

you would be in a small cohort.

Them con kids... xD
The audition process for me was
written test, aural test, some random other test that probably had to do with Dalcroze method
Then an audition with the head of strings
Then I got in? :/ But I didnt go xD

I suppose it's harder because they only had 14 or so kids enrol in year 7 this year :|

I go to the Con :)

It's okay although I prefer the previous Principal much more.
He was friendly and I always got a pleasant hello.
