Year One and Two students have used iPads to create media artworks that were inspired by indigenous artists, Sally Morgan, Ezekiel Kwaymullina and Bronwyn Bancroft. They have also created artwork for a particular purpose - a hand dish to hold soap, a pot for a plant, a container for their jewellery.

Students in Years Three and Four focused on contemporary artist Sandra Silberzweig and were inspired by her colourful, abstract-like portraits to create a portrait of their own. They are currently creating sculptures - Year Three students are using a recycled plastic bottle as the catalyst for their art whereas the Year Four students are delving into abstract sculptures with wire and stockings. These will be featured in next term’s newsletter - they will be amazing!!!!
