[edit] School Focuses
Endeavour College is primarily an Arts school. Music performances are of high quality ranging from the Year 8 Bands to the schools concert band, the 'Showband'. The annual Arts night, is an evening of celebration, as the various facets of the Arts combine to show the gifts of the students and even some staff!
Physical Education is promoted in the way of Vista Sport, which was incredibly successful for the College in 2006, with Endeavour even winning a Grand Final (8/9 Boys Vista Tennis).
Students are given the chance to show off their public speaking skills with several debating teams.
