Early Years Art

Art Program

In the Art program we strive to provide all the students with many varied visual and media art techniques.

In Prep to Year 1 the students get to experiment with different materials and processes to make a range of Art forms such as painting, etching, collage and clay modelling. They also get to use media technologies to capture images and ideas.

In Years 2-4 the students get to explore ideas and artworks from different cultures. They get to plan, create and present media artworks for specific purposes. The students use materials, visual conventions and techniques from a range of places, times and cultures to create artworks.

Making Pottery

Three weeks ago in Art, 4A and 4E made clay pots. We made the bottom using containers and we made clay snakes and piled themon top of the base, on top of each other and also we had to mould them together by using water. During the second week of the activity we got to paint our pots. Some of us painted only using red, yellow, green and blue. Some people thought outside the box and mixed the colours. In the end everyone's pot turned out great.
