Year 10 Art Incursion

The year 10 Visual Arts students were visited by established artist Rachelle Dusting to learn the techniques and skills she has developed and honed over her artistic career. Under Rachelle’s careful and learned instruction, the students investigated the concept of visual temperature in oil painting using warm and cool colours over a three hour workshop. The first study was a basic ball image used to understand the relationship between temperature and areas of shadow and highlight, including reflections and light sources. Armed only with shades of red, yellow, blue and white, the students were challenged to create lifelike skin tones in their second study of a human ear.

Science Rocks! 

Our Year 8 students recently participated in an incursion from Australia Earth Science Education. They were learning about different types of rocks, the rock cycle and the importance of tackling climate change. The students were then able to have a go at identifying and classifying various rocks.
