The Arts program complements and enriches the school’s Integrated Curriculum while
focussing on the Visual Arts learning outcomes of exploring and developing ideas, using skills, techniques and processes, presenting, and arts criticism/aesthetics.
It aims to cover the Visual Arts areas of painting, drawing, textiles, sculpture (modelling and construction), collage and printmaking.
An individually selected piece of art work is presented at the Clunes Show each year for each child.
Through our music program we aim to stimulate and further develop an interest in, and enjoyment of, the performing arts. We also aim to create an awareness and
understanding of the various elements of music, and to broaden the children’s concept of music. Music lessons aim to involve children in the six main areas of music – listening, moving, creating, reading, playing and singing.
A major performance is conducted every two years with all children in the school taking part. A
performance will occur again in Term 3/ Term 4, 2017.
Where possible children who already learn musical instruments out of school are encouraged to make use of their talents through our music program.
