Visual Arts 

Foundation

Toa - I enjoyed playing with clay because it was soft which made me happy. I learned that I need to score and use slip so my clay creation doesn't fall apart. 

Joel - I enjoyed making items with clay because it was soft like playdough. I learned that I must use slip when joining pieces of clay together. 

Year 1

Onaya - My favourite part was using clay and learning how to make something with it. 

A skill I have learned is how to score.

Effikki - My favourite part was learning about clay and a skill I have learned is how to draw our past. 

Year 2

Ayush- I like sketchbook because I like to draw. I made a cup with clay using slip and score lines. 

Emma- I enjoyed using clay because I could make something I liked, such as an 'among us'. I learned that you must use slip, because when I did not my clay creation fell apart. 

Year 3

Lina- My favourite part was when I worked with a partner to draw how to express ourselves. I have learned new drawing skills and how to draw different patterns.

Lewis - My favourite part was learning about landscapes because we got to draw landscapes about different cultures. 

Year 4

Vienna - My favourite part of art this year was making 'soundlandscapes', because I got to paint Chinatown and I got to make a matching piece of music on Garageband. The skills I learned this year are how to blend colours and how to make watercolour artwork more detailed. 

Snehargha - My favourite part was when my group members and I created a wigglebot that made artwork, and was a combination of STEM and Visual Arts. I learned about the relationship between line with pitch and duration.

Year 5

Annabelle -  I loved the 'I am a Entrepreneur' project because it was so much fun making the item then selling it at the stall, I enjoyed buying other peoples creations too. 

Danny - I liked it when we designed the poster and logo for our ‘I am an Entrepreneur’ task. We were able to get very creative and used a range of techniques including digital painting apps. 

Year 6

Pranshi - Being this year's art captain was a thrill. Doing the speech and presenting was terrifying but I could not be happier. Working with Rochelle and Abdullah was amazing because I learned how to sew, be confident and synergise. Being art captain means stepping outside of your comfort zone and helping out. I loved being art captain, I recommend applying. 

Abdullah - Visual Arts was a great subject as we got to do many projects combined with other specialists. In Term 2 the Year 5 and 6 students created products and at the end of the term, we had a specialist fair where we got to sell our products. I had lots of fun creating our stress relief toy for my group. We created video advertisements as well as paper advertisements.  I think lots of people had fun on the topic 'I am an Entrepreneur'. I think this because we got to sell our products to raise funds for the school's JSC.
