Arts

Mission

The Arts Education curriculum aims to help students:

  1. develop creativity, critical thinking and communication skills, and nurture aesthetic sensitivity and cultural awareness;
  2. develop arts skills, construct knowledge, and cultivate positive values and attitudes;
  3. gain delight, enjoyment and satisfaction through participating in arts activities; 
  4. pursue a lifelong interest in the arts.

  1. Developing Creativity and Imagination
  2. Developing Skills and Processes 
  3. Cultivating Critical Responses
  4. Understanding Arts in Context

Curriculum

Our school-based Arts curricula consist of art appreciation and criticism, and art making / composing & performing, catering both the majority and elite students.
