We are here for the students

Art

Artistic achievement is learning how to bring together diverse elements and principles into a cohesive art work. For this to take place a plethora of different kinds of thinking and feelings need to melt together to form a whole.

For some people, artistic talents come naturally, however, for most of us we rely on thinking strategies to discover what we do not intuitively know.

At Kingwood Primary School, we employ a Thinking Curriculum in a bid to help better educate and prepare our students for the demands of a 21st century.

We provide a rich environment that allows ‘learning by doing’, ‘opportunities for spontaneity’ and a safe environment that is tolerant and conducive to ‘risk taking’. The children and teachers are challenged to problem solve, provoke further questioning and stretch their thinking as we all learn and grow together.
