Model Farms High School is a public high school in Baulkham Hills, a suburb in the northwest Sydney, New South Wales. The school is named so because the area was set up to demonstrate farming practices to convicts and others who wished to start a farm when the first settlers arrived. The school was built and established in 1975 and still continues to be using its primary facilities.
The Musical
A school musical production is also held once every two years. It is always a huge production with a cast of many school students.
In 2007, much hard work was placed into the production of 'The Forbidden Planet'.
In 2009, the students wowed audiences with the production 'Back To The 80's'.
In 2011, students put together a production of 'The Great Australian Rock Musical'.
