Creative arts

Creative arts is mandatory for students from Kindergarten to Year 6. 

In creative arts, students discover a variety of art forms through a study of dance, drama, music and visual arts where they learn to appreciate, compose, listen, make and perform.

Each art form has its own unique knowledge and skills, elements or concepts as well as a capacity to inspire and enrich lives.

Students must study 100 hours of both music and visual arts during Years 7 to 10. They also have an opportunity to further develop their knowledge and skills in other art forms through elective subjects including drama, dance, photography and visual design. Students can then select from a range of courses in Years 11 to 12.

Creative and Practical Arts (PDF 18KB) is enjoyed by the students at Fowler Road. We focus on various activities based on each student's learning capability that dominates their interest, capacity and needs. Our activities help to develop and build on the knowledge, skills, values and attitudes students gain in these areas.
