The term has started with celebrations. Chinese New Year began on 2 February. It is the Year of the Tiger. The students viewed the work of Henri Rousseau, 'Tiger in a Tropical Storm'.

Years 5 and 6

The students worked with the element of value. Using a photograph, placed upside down and three different values of the one colour, they worked with shapes of value to draw the tiger. 

Years 2, 3 and 4

The students discussed things they would like to do, learn or a challenge to achieve in 2022. These were written down and a dye washed over the top to create a background for the tiger. Rubbings of leaves were done, cut out and pasted onto their work to create the idea of a jungle. The elements of line, shape, colour, texture and value were revised in the process of creating the artwork.

Pre-Primary 

The elements of line, shape, colour and texture were introduced to the Pre-Primary students as they created a cargo train collage.
