Visual Arts
Ceramics
During the stage 4 Visual Arts course students learn about the role of art, in all forms of media, in contemporary and historical cultures and visual worlds. Students are provided with the opportunities to create artworks through the use of technologies including traditional and contemporary art forms and emerging applications including digital media.
Students who have demonstrated aptitude for and interest in Visual Arts often seek to further their studies in either Visual Arts or Photography in years 9 and 10. These focus areas have been selected to provide distinct fields of interest for students.
Visual Arts fosters interest and enjoyment in the making and studying of art. Throughout the two years of the course students' knowledge of the visual arts can become increasingly complex, more reflective and authoritative. A wide range of opportunities is available for students to develop their own interests, to be self-motivated and to investigate the visual arts in complex and rich ways.
