Visual Arts

The Primary Visual Art curriculum gives students an opportunity to explore a range of art materials and media. Visual art enables students to communicate in powerful ways that go beyond their spoken language ability, fostering creativity and self-discovery.

Artwork may be related to the unit of inquiry being taught in the classroom and used to develop ideas, skills and perception. The creative process is seen as a driving force in learning through inquiry.

Primary students will use a variety of media, and have the opportunity to look at works of art and discuss them in context. The programme aims to develop the visual literacy of each student and to encourage informed and thoughtful responses.
