Music Club
The Music Club at Veritas Collegiate Academy is an exciting way for students to
explore their interest in music. Students bring their own ideas to the forefront with guidance from the music teacher. All styles and formats are considered, with minor exceptions. Opportunities for performance occur through impromptu performances throughout the year, and bi-weekly within our Chapel meetings. This year, we are going to include Choir Concepts as part of the club, which will give students the opportunity to prepare appropriate material for formal events in the Chapel and other school functions. Much of this repertoire will cover the Medieval and Early Renaissance Eras.

Bible Knowledge
Are you picking up a Bible for the first time? Do you wish you could understand more about the Bible? Do you want to learn how to study the Bible? The Bible is the most influential book in history. It is here that one learns of the oracles of God to that he might live in joyful submission to God, the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ. Come to this club where you will do an inductive Bible study of Philippians and parts of other books. You will be edified!
Journalism Club
The Journalism Club is designed for students who enjoy writing, planning, and creative expression. Each month, every member is assigned a specific piece to cover, typically a review of different Veritas events that have taken place. This gives students the chance to practice reporting, analysis, and clear communication while highlighting the life of the school community. Students who are more interested in art and design can contribute by creating layouts, adding
visuals, and working with Canva to make the newsletters polished and engaging. Together, the team produces a monthly publication that captures and celebrates the events and achievements of Veritas.
Robotics
Students in the robotics club will design, build, test, and program a robot using sensors, controllers, and actuators. Students will form a team to participate in qualifying competitions from November to February 2026, depending on the readiness of the robot. Regular meetings are on Friday afternoon from 3:00 pm to 5:00 PM. Half day will be from 12:00 pm to 2:00 PM.
Extra meetings are expected during the competition season.

During each art club session, the art teacher will be demonstrating how to construct various forms (2D, 3D, drawing, etc) of artworks and crafts by using different types of art materials and found objects together. In addition to the art club project sequences, students may also use the art club time to work on their art class projects as well if needed.
