Department Aims

Our aim is:

• To develop in children the capacity to learn about and observe the world in which they live.
• Focus observation of familiar things by encouraging children to look carefully at what is before them; to observe and to talk about what they see, and to think about how they might develop their skills. 
• Develop children's understanding of the formal elements of art, ie line, colour, form, texture, tone and light and their ability  to use materials and process in order to communicate ideas, feelings and meanings.
