Feature News - Visual Arts
This week in Visual Arts the 1/2 students learnt a story about a boy who painted dragons before creating our own dragon bodies. Next week, we look forward to adding our details such as the tails, background and eyes!
The Senior School reflected on our 2023 Art year and started planning for our 2024 by creating Vision Board collages. The 5/6 students designed these in their new Art Portfolios and the 3/4s created posters using their own drawings and cutouts.
Not only did our students enjoy Art this week, our incredible teachers and staff also participated in an Art Session during our Curriculum Day to design a collaborative landscape artwork to display in our offices. Well done teachers!
