From the Art Room

Welcome to the latest update from our vibrant art room!
I am delighted to share the incredible artistic journey our students have embarked upon during NAIDOC Week this year. Inspired by the rich cultural heritage of Australia's Indigenous peoples, our art room has been abuzz with creativity and innovation. Our students have immersed themselves in various art forms, each reflecting the spirit of NAIDOC Week and celebrating Indigenous culture.
Our youngest students have been busy making yarn texture sticks, a project that not only introduces them to the world of textures but also hones their fine motor skills. These sticks are not just pieces of art but expressions of their imagination and learning journey.
The older students have taken their creativity to new heights by crafting sculptures using hay and yarn. Inspired by the works of Western Australian Artist Sharyn Egan, these sculptures are stunning examples of how art can blend different materials to tell a unique story. Throughout this experience, our students have learned about the significance of texture in art, exploring various techniques in sculpting and weaving, and, most importantly, gained a deeper appreciation for Indigenous art and culture.
