The Arts

Visual Arts

Foundation

Foundation students have started exploring the Art Room at Karoo Primary School. They responded to the book, When I'm Feeling Loved', by creating a collage of people in their own lives that make them feel loved. 

Year 1 and 2

Year 1s and 2s have been learning about the colours of the rainbow, using the name 'Roy G Biv' to remind them of the correct order (R=red, O=orange, Y=yellow, G=green, B=blue, I=indigo, V=violet). They started with primary colours and then created the secondary colours required to paint a rainbow.

Year 3 and 4

Year 3/4 students have continued to learn about art from different countries and cultures. This week they have been learning about Mehndi body art from South Asia.

Performing Arts

Year 1s and 2s have continued to learn about rhythm. They have been working in groups to create rhythm patterns using ta, titi, tika-tika, tika-ti and ti-tika. They have also composed their own song lyrics to accompany their rhythm patterns which they performed for their classmates.
