Year 7 Highlights:

Our Year 7 students have been immersed in the world of perspective drawing, with a particular focus on architectural and technical elements. Their dedication and hardwork have resulted in remarkable progress. We have witnessed their ability to bring depth and dimension to their artwork, and we are excited to see their continued growth.

Year 8 Highlights:

Our aspiring Disney creators in Year 8 have delved into the magical world of Walt Disney. Through their imaginative projects, they have explored storytelling, character design, and animation techniques. Their passion for bringing their own unique stories to life is truly inspiring, and we cannot wait to see what they create in the future.

Year 9 Highlights:

Nature has been the primary source of inspiration for our Year 9 students. Guided by the masterful work of Andy Goldsworthy, they have embraced ephemeral art, using natural materials to create stunning installations. Their ability to capture the transient beauty of nature is awe-inspiring, and we encourage everyone to keep an eye out for their ephemeral creations.

Our older students in Years 10, 11, and 12 are on an artistic journey of self-discovery. They have been exploring various mediums, techniques, and themes to express their unique artistic vision. Their dedication to their craft and willingness to push boundaries is commendable. We are proud of their participation in exhibitions, competitions, and their growing recognition within the art community.
