The Arts as a Vehicle for Creative Thinking

The Arts is a learning area that draws together the related but distinct art forms of drama, music, and visual arts. Each involves different approaches to arts practices and promotes critical and creative thinking that reflects distinct bodies of knowledge, understandings, and skills, across a range of cultures and places.

Within all arts subjects, learning facilitates the creative and practical realization of ideas, where experimentation, composition, and refinement take into account logical, critical, and aesthetic considerations.

School of Nations students explore the mediums of artistic and musical expression. Semi and annual productions integrate the arts, dance, drama, and music, giving expression to thought-provoking and entertaining presentations. Creativity is enhanced throughout the school as students experience unity, beauty, and truth, using the arts as a vehicle for inner reflection and growth.
