Gallery Excursion

On Thursday 18 June, 25 students from Years 7 to 12 enjoyed a day at the National Gallery of Victoria. Students spent hours exploring the collection of artworks, learning about the artists and themes, drawing and taking photos. We finished the day with a little street art tour. Students left the day feeling inspired and collectively took over 2000 inspiration photos!

Year 9 Photography

Students have achieved great success with their Analogue Photography CAT, focusing on weird & wonderful portraits! 

Students were tasked with planning their photoshoots, before using 35mm cameras to take their images. Furthermore, they learnt all about darkroom processes by developing their negatives and creating prints in the darkroom. The results are fabulous - some even extended themselves by colourising their scanned negatives in Photoshop. 

Year 8 Animation

Students explored 8bit and 16bit animation graphics, before designing their own pixel art characters and animating them.
