Arts Education

Connection to learning in the arts affords students to express opinion, emotion and larger ideas; generates cross-curricular learning connected to basic maths skills of counting, shapes and communicative literacies. Arts Education generates people who are resilient, empathetic, and optimistic about the world we live in.

I acknowledge the Boonwurrung and Wurundjerri People of the Kulin Nation as the First peoples of this land and for whom sovereignty was never ceded. I recognise that they are the caretakers of the earth, water, and skies upon which work, live, and teach. I respect and honor the first people's connection to storytelling through dance, art, and voice, and commit to sharing these stories and truth-telling within my classroom.

Acknowledgement of Country
