The Visual Arts Program at ISF provides students with a wide range of opportunities to learn about the arts and through the arts. Children are stimulated to think and to articulate their thoughts in new ways using a vast range of materials, with the school’s picturesque setting providing inspiration for creative exploration.
Students respond to their experiences and engage with historical, social and cultural perspectives through the Units of Inquiry as well as learning techniques and skills that are taught whilst developing attitudes such as empathy and appreciation. Through engaging with the artwork of a wide range of artists, learners are encouraged to develop analytical skills and situate their own creativity within a broader context.
