The Arts are a way of expression for the Students of Sacred Heart. The students are able to experience fun learning experiences in Art and Music delivered by experienced teachers.
Students will also experience performances by local and visiting school bands, as well as professional orchestras, and will experience cultural dances via visiting professionals.
The Arts allows students to gather data through all senses, think flexibly and to create, imagine and innovate.
"Imagination is more important than knowledge. Knowledge is limited, imagination encircles the world."

Art
Art is completed on a rotational basis in all classes. Mrs Puckeridge teaches skills in the many forms of art, including sculpture, drawing, printmaking, painting and clay. A feature of this area of study is the regular competitions where students can collaborate with family members to enter art activities, such as reproducing a Picasso, or a Monet, or entering our version of the Archibalds.

Dance is completed in K - 6 as a subject during class time. Students learn jazz and hip-hop, and integrated into the curriculum for the other classes. These skills have been put to good use in eisteddfods and dance competitions.
