Visual Arts
Visual Arts at Ingleburn High School is an energetic initiative. We aim to stimulate an enjoyment in both creating artworks and developing an understanding for what has shaped the history of art. The student's world is a source of stimulating ideas and Visual Arts allows students to access their passions, strengths and beliefs.
We engage our students in lifelong learning as critical consumers of life in the 21st century: they debate and critically question fine art in the mainstream, and art in the public/popular domains of graphic design, architecture, film, photography, advertising, art proposals and art critique.
Students are offered the opportunity to participate in a variety of electives including in Stage 5 (Years 9 and 10) - Visual Arts, Visual Design and Photography and Digital Media and in Stage 6 (Years 11 and 12) – Visual Arts, Visual Design, Ceramics and Photography, Video and Digital Imaging. Students at Ingleburn High School can be immersed in Creative Arts by participating in a number of co-curricular activities including the Art Enrichment program and entering a variety of competitions and camps offered to students throughout the year.
