Creative arts is mandatory for students from Kindergarten to Year 6.
In creative arts, students discover a variety of art forms through a study of dance, drama, music and visual arts where they learn to appreciate, compose, listen, make and perform.
Each art form has its own unique knowledge and skills, elements or concepts as well as a capacity to inspire and enrich lives.
Your child will have access to many outstanding opportunities and programs in the creative and performing arts at Brookvale Public School. These opportunities are designed to develop and foster the talents and interests of students whilst also developing confidence and building self-esteem. Creative and Performing Arts addresses the areas of Visual Arts, Music, Drama and Dance. Students work with classroom and specialised teachers in these areas for enjoyment, expression, creativity and imagination.
