The Arts

Visual Arts

At Mylor we are proud to offer a specialist Visual Arts program to all students.

Each week students take part in Visual Arts sessions that continually build upon learning from Reception to Year 6, and explore a range of cultural and historical contexts. These sessions deliver the Australian Curriculum in a format designed to foster creativity and support students’ learning about themselves and the broader global community.

This ongoing learning culminates in senior students undertaking self-directed Visual Arts projects, supported by our specialist teacher Abbie Jones. Student works from all year levels are publicly presented alongside these projects in an exhibition that celebrates the achievements of Visual Arts learning at Mylor.

Performing Arts

Performing Arts consists of curriculum areas of dance, drama, media arts, and music. Students’ creativity and imagination are ignited through games, improvisation, songs, and other interactive activities. Performing Arts classes are designed to give students opportunities to create, design, and produce a range of artistic works. 

Alongside developing creative and performance skills, students build self-efficacy, confidence, and a sense of self as they are supported to step out of their comfort zones, try new things, and be brave.

It is emphasised that audience skills and performance skills are of equal value, so students engaged in opportunities to embed this through our school values of meaningful, yarning, leadership, opportunity, and resilience.

At the end of the year, the students showcase their learning and achievements with a whole school performance presented to the community.
