This sort of thing tends to happen when you get some international students and some arty types , an Arts Co-ordinator with some pots of paint and an empty wall . We didn't think that so many would join in but when you see something that's a lot of fun to do , it's hard not to join in !
Well , now their external boards are all done and dusted , this lot are at it again . The world is full of walls , some of them are great (think China) and some of them are not so great (won't say where) . To this great pantheon we now add THAMES HIGH SCHOOL'S ART WALL - quite possibly the best wall of all !
Our Year 13 Art and Photography (we've got some stunning Year 12's this year so we've included them too) exhibition is up at Sola cafe. You know the drill ! Go for a coffee , eat healthy , fall in love with and buy a piece of beautiful art ! The students are, as always, very grateful to Sola Cafe for giving us the opportunity to show our work .
The student show is coming down today (May 24th) . We hope you got to see it . Lots of work was sold which is great for the students . Hot on the heels of their show is the staff Art Show . What's great about this is that it's not just the Art Teachers , it's lots of teachers . It's a little humbling to know that so many teachers engage regularly in exploring their creativity amidst their hectic lives and work schedules . So , once again, come on down and have a coffee , cake and a healthy salad (not in that order) and enjoy the show . . . .
Ms. Ferguson's Year 9 students have been making our latest mural. See if you can work out what the themes and the cultural references are in the work . . .
Our annual Creativity Night was a grand experience . As always , the student work on display was something else (check out the diversity on the school Celebrations Facebook page) . A huge 'Thank You' to the students who exhibited , helped , performed , served and came along . A huge 'Thank You' to all the parents and caregivers who came along to see what we do here . It was good , wasn't it ! Feel free to spread the word . . .
In the meantime , here's some pictures .

Summer's coming . And that means MURALS . Works in progress but they are going to be amazing when they're completed !
