Program Art and Craft in the Scotch Junior School covers eight main Art curriculum areas. These are painting, drawing, printing, clay, textiles, construction, paperwork and Art Appreciation. All boys from Prep to Year 6 cover all the eight areas as their own level of development. Boys are encouraged to use their imagination, test their problem solving skills and to be creative in all their artistic projects.
All boys participate in graphic drawing skills on the computer.
Boys use the mouse as a free hand drawing tool and use the computer in exciting and creative ways. Howard Gardner's theory of Multiple Intelligences is a major influence on all lessons and they are normally Domain projects, going over a number of weeks and use all the seven intelligences when possible. In the Junior Primary section of the Junior School - Prep to Year 3, the boys will be involved in a range of Art activities. Preps to Year 3 boys will be painting again on class themes. Boys loves painting and have asked when they can do painting again.
