9 VCD Architecture Studio Design

Following the “Kids Under Cover” organisation studio program, students had to design a studio that could be built in the backyard of homes to assist carers who needed more room to accommodate young people in their care.

The designed studio would need to suit a 16 year old and consist of a room for a bed, desk and chair, a wardrobe and ensuite. The total size of the studio would be no larger than 18 square meters.

Students had to design and draw to scale their studio plan and then turn it into a three dimensional model.

Year 8 VCD Bird Mobiles Bird Mobile

Students applied their knowledge of Design Elements and Principles when creating their bird mobile. They experimented with Illustrator digitally or used manual skills to create a pattern to place on a bird template. This work was produced on card, cut out and made into a mobile.

Year 9 Stencil Art

The Year 9 Art class explored Street Art and the various array of art making techniques used by street artists. The students developed their own multi-layered stencils by manipulating a photograph in Photoshop. The stencils were then carefully cut out by hand using a scalpel knife before being spray painted.
