Art Installations

Our amazing Art teacher Di Zobel has done amazing work with our students over the years and with some help from visiting artists they have created some great art installations that are placed around our grounds. Here is a gallery of these works along with some that were constructed for our school.

Wall Mural - 2017

Wall Mural - 2017

The theme of our Mural is The world - Australia (around the sink) .The idea was to inspire conversations about our place in the world. Our indigenous history and culture, our animals and plants.
The preps made the leaves and flowers on the trees around the sink. Grade 1 made the snakes that are attached to the map of Australia and these are meant to represent major gathering places of the aboriginal people. The older students made the birds and the animals. Sometimes working individually and sometimes working as part of a team to create the larger creatures.
