Springston School Art Festival

Today saw the culmination of our Arts Inquiry for this term. Parents and community were invited to attend a fabulous Art Festival afternoon, where each class put on a display of the various art forms the students had created, including live outdoor performances.

Here is Part 1 of a series of slideshows of photos taken during the Festival afternoon. You'll see a huge range of different art forms were explored, and students then chose one of these to take further and use as a tool to get their audience thinking about some issue that concerned them. Keep looking back for further slideshows as they are posted!

As you watch the slideshows, ask yourself:
  • What is Art?
  • And what message is the artist trying to convey?
We'd love you to leave a comment letting us know what you thought of the Festival!




Here are some displays from Room 7 (Year 7-8).





Now a couple of performances, and then the Room 3 displays.

Flocabulary's 'The Week in Rap'

Some of the students who attended Carol's music workshop recently will know something about composing a rap. So, this weekly news rap summary from Flocabulary will probably be of great interest! Every Friday, the Flocabulary team does a summary of a week's worth of news. A really different way of presenting the news, don't you think!

How many of these world news items do you recognise?

Now, there's a challenge for the Media Team to try some time in the future!
