ART2

Year 10 students in Fashion Design have been exploring clay as a wearable art material and completed wearable artworks for a small-scale exhibition in Art 2 under the theme of ‘Wild at Heart’. The works have been viewed by other classes in the Arts space over the past week.

Students used ceramic glazes and learned how colour changed during the firing process and when interacting with different colours of clay such as terracotta which had extreme colour changing results. 

Students also needed to consider how they would go about joining materials and integrating jewellery hardware with their delicate ceramic pieces. Special thanks to Mr Wood in Technology for supporting us with tools to manipulate metal components.

 

Photographs of exhibited pieces can be seen on display in the front office foyer space this term. Well done to all our contributing artists.


Music Ensemble Night

To finish term 2, the Aberfoyle Park High School extra-curricular ensembles presented a performance to families and friends. Additionally, six year 12 soloists presented their second performance for assessment, accompanied by Mr Nisan Tuazon.

 

 

Ensembles included the Big Band, Concert Band, Percussion Ensemble, Chamber Ensemble and Choir, which included 85 students across year 7-12. Students have worked together through the year to learn their music ready for this performance, additionally this was the second formal assessment for the year 12 ensemble music students. 

It is always wonderful to see the hard work students put into their music learning, as a final product, and to see how student’s progress and gain confidence in their music skills every lesson. 

 

This was the first music performance in the new theatre, and music students are looking forward to many more performances in the future.
