In 2016, the Band competed for the first time at Daylesford (Victoria), competing for the season in school uniform. In 2017, the late David Haymes from 'Haymes Paint' became the Band’s benefactor, kitting the Band out in the ‘Modern Holyrood’ tartan.

The Band attended their first (national) Australian Pipe Band Championships in 2022 in Sydney, achieving 2nd place in 4B and being crowned as Drumming Champions.

The Ballarat Grammar Pipe Band comprises students from Year 4 through to Year 12. The Band is under the direction of Amber Ives (piping) and Ed Roxburgh (drumming) and actively performs throughout the school calendar and wider Ballarat community events.

The band is very exciting to be in Glasgow this year, the first international tour the band has had. Additionally to performing at Piping Live! the band will be competing at the European Pipe Band Championships and the World Pipe Band Championships in Grade 4B.
