Visual Arts 

Year 1, 2, 4 & 6 will collaboratively design and create a mural for Oak Flats Public School, ‘The World of Minibeasts’. Through research, observation and imagination, students will explore various techniques and styles in how to sketch and paint a colourful and detailed artwork with the intention of evoking a visual connectedness to nature and the spectacular realm of minibeasts.
