Art Extension News

The Art Extension group have started to work with crayoning. In the last lesson, the whole group went out to the wildscape to study and draw bushes and trees.

Unfortunately, with the tight schedule that the Year 7s and 8s have, Art Extension may have to be moved to a more suitable time for students.
