Visual Arts

 

Our Visual Arts Program is structured to foster and grow imagination and creativity. Student artworks are on display throughout the school to showcase their achievements. Our Art Room is purpose built including a kiln for firing clay.

Art Sessions

Each week every class has a 50-minute session of hands-on art making with a specialist art teacher.

Students are introduced to a wide range of art media, materials, processes and techniques to plan and produce artworks that communicate their experiences, feelings and ideas such as:

  • Painting

  • Drawing

  • Modelling

  • Construction

  • Printing

  • Textiles

  • Mixed Media

When planning their artworks, students discuss and learn about contemporary and historical works, and works from other cultures. They are taught art terminology and use this when talking about their pieces.
