Primary program
Each class will be encouraged to organise an exhibition of their nature-inspired artwork and invite other students or members of the school community to view it, with each artist recording a commentary of their work to further invite engagement following the school excursion.
This project has been designed as an immersive, cross-curricular learning experience which may take up to a term to fully explore within the classroom, however teachers should fit the project within their scope and sequence as appropriate.
