Art & Design Exhibition 2022
2022 saw the end of lockdowns and the return of face to face learning. It was wonderful to see our creative art spaces come alive again. Teaching creative practical based subjects back in the classroom allowed the students to engage in more exciting hands-on based lessons exploring a wide range of materials and techniques. Students worked on ceramic sculptures, paintings, photography, making short films and building architectural models.
Working as a team we collaborated on ideas for new learning activities and ways to keep the students engaged and challenged. Our primary art students explored a range of art forms and experimented with materials for the first time. Sharon Bourke joined our team as a new Year 5 & 6 Art teacher and used her breadth of knowledge and experience to challenge our primary students. The work produced was fun, innovative and exciting. Our Year 7 and 8 students, under the tutelage of Emma D’Angelo, Christine Bassili, Shane Mackintosh and Joanna Dickson worked on ceramic pots and cars, lino cuts, paintings and drawings. These classes are always buzzing with energy and excitement.
This year over at Holy Eucharist David Happ, Warren Bardsley and Malwina Dwyer continued their great work with the Year 9 students. David Happ also worked hard to develop the new Year 9 Visual Communication Design course which will be available as a new elective in 2023. Our VCE students were in good hands with Christine Bassili, Eliza Meallin and myself. Embarking on a creative folio subject can be a daunting task for any student, but I was incredibly impressed with the quality of the work and dedication across all our VCE subjects. The care and support that Eliza and Christine provide for their students always amazes me.
I would like to take this opportunity to thank our dedicated arts team; Warren Bardsely, Christine Bassili, Sharon Bourke, Emma D’Angelo, Joanna Dickson, Malwina Dwyer, Mark Gustincic, David Happ, Kerry Martin, Eliza Meallin, Shane Mackintosh, Travis MacDonald & Angela Runci.
