RSSS is a performing art support organisation run by volunteers. Its members and friends give generously of their spare time to encourage enjoyment and excellence in the performing arts, and self respect to its students.

We do this by way of competition, festival, concert, publicity, and even guest speakers. We aim to help aspiring Australians from 3 year old to adults. Our most obvious effort is staging the “Grand National Eisteddfod of Australasia” in Ballarat each year. The Society has provided this service for 117 years now (as of 2008), and it is the longest operating competition in Australia, followed by Wollongong at 115 years.

117th Year of Competitions draws to a close South Street celebrated it's 117th year of competition with a spectacular Showcase evening featuring entertaining performances from a variety of disciplines. View photographs from the 2008 Showcase in the photo gallery.
