Senior Art Trip

On 11 February, senior Art students visited the Auckland City Art Gallery in order to view work by contemporary young New Zealand artists and to become familiar with the gallery archive, which holds comprehensive and valuable information on each New Zealand artist.  The students have to complete a written analytical study on a selected artist of their choice whose work they must  view first-hand. The trip proved to be an extremely worthwhile experience and the students have become familiar with how to research and access information that they require to conduct their personal study.

Art Club for Years 9 & 10

A new Art Club has commenced for middle school students. This will be held in T5 on Day 5 each week from now right through to the end of Term 2.  Places are limited so be in quick!  Students can work in the media of their own choice and extra tuition may be available.  Students should see Mr Hansen to register their interest.

Stage Challenge

Stage Challenge is well underway this term already with dance groups being organised rehearsals being held in the Dance Studio at lunchtime.  Olivia Harter and Sarah Haggerty are leading the team this year with expertise and enthusiasm.  Our theme is a sad one this year based on the ultimate sacrifice of war.  Fundraising is in action so a polite request please to eat lots of Cadbury chocolate so we can raise enough money for all our costumes and large props!  Thank you.
Anne Elliott, Teacher in Charge.
