Activity

 

Arts Exposure

  • Assembly Programmes
  • External Performances

Art Exposure programmes introduce students to a particular art form. They are approximately 30 to 40 minutes long and are presented in the form of a performance (usually accompanied by an explanation about the background and development of the art form) or a talk-cum-demonstration session.

Arts Experience

  • Lunch time concerts
  • Talent Show ‘Live Your Dream’
  • Guitar & Percussion Lesson (Sem 1 – Sec 3 NT

    Sem 2 –     Sec 2NT)

  • Participation in Art competitions

Arts Experience programmes go one step further by providing opportunities for students to participate in the various art forms. These programmes are most suitable for smaller groups of students. They are designed to be interactive and to help build students’ confidence, skills and expand their capacity for creative thinking.

*Arts Excursion

  • Attend performances
  • Visits to local galleries and museums

An environment totally different from a classroom setting would certainly increase students’ interest in learning. Arts Excursions allow students to attend performances at formal performance venues, so they can visit museums, art centres,  theatres and participate in outdoor arts events. With Arts Excursions, students can visit artists’ studios or rehearsal spaces to get a behind-the-scenes glimpse at the work they do and a chance to talk to the artists involved.

*Depend on availability and suitability
