The study of creative arts is mandatory in NSW from Kindergarten to Year 6.
Creative arts in K - 6 is designed to enable students to gain increasing understanding and accomplishment in the visual arts, music, drama, and dance. We want students to appreciate the meaning and values that each of these art forms offer personally, culturally and as forms of communication. Creative Arts students experience and develop complex skills required to create and test ideas, generate creative works with confidence, shape enquiry and critically evaluate and reflect on what they do. Studying in the Creative Arts prepares students to be significant producers and informed consumers of culture.
Creative Arts enables young people to engage with and enjoy exploring expressive forms, ideas, and values. The Creative Arts provide opportunities to enchant, explore, investigate, and respond to the world through making and performing. At Nuwarra, this is showcased in a yearly school or Community of Schools performance and a talent show.
