Visual Arts is committed to providing a program to develop skills which enable expression and communication through experience, response and interpretation of visual forms.
Visual Arts aims to provide programs which encourage students:
- to develop the intellectual and expressive potential of the student through aural, spatial, kinaesthetic, interpersonal and visual experiences
- to explore how different social and cultural groups engage in and convey meaning through their art
- to develop skills and techniques through exploration and development of ideas using a broad range of materials and media
- to gain confidence in art criticism and aesthetics through describing, analysing, interpreting and evaluating their own and other art works
