The following students were nominated and accepted a position in the Year 8 Extension Visual Arts Program.

The students have been experimenting with drawing and painting techniques, using perspectives and the application of colour in their imagery. They are preparing to enter the Blacktown City Young Artists Prize this month. We look forward to seeing their entries.
When asked “Why do you want to be part of the Visual Arts extension class?” some
of the students responses were:
“I feel like I want to be an animator when I’m older and I want to be as prepared as possible.”
“So that I can further enhance my abilities and learn new things.”
“To know how to do art more and be able to share the same interest as others.”
“To exercise artistic abilities and enhance creative thinking for future assignments.”
“So I can learn from others and their art and also become better as an artist for the experience, so I’ll be taking this art extension class as an opportunity.”
On behalf of the Visual Arts staff I wish to congratulate them for taking up this opportunity to extend their skills and give up their time after school to do so.
