Visual Arts is a great subject that teaches you both practical and creative skills that can be applied to many other subjects. I enjoyed my Year 10 Visual Arts course as we had the opportunity to craft with more mediums like clay and we were able to create quite advanced pieces. I would highly recommend studying Visual Arts if you are inventive or have a passion for creating. Eve Miragliotta
The Year 10 visual art course was extremely beneficial and fun. I learned how to appreciate art and its importance in society and also learn how to develop a design process. I had a lot of fun being creative and experiencing new art mediums. Keely Maher
