2025 Art Show

Thank you to everyone who joined us on 20 October for an afternoon celebrating Art and the creativity of our students from Prep to VCE Visual Arts and Media. Visitors enjoyed exploring a vibrant collection of student artworks and taking part in the People’s Choice voting for standout pieces from both Primary and Secondary levels. It was a wonderful opportunity to recognise and celebrate the talent within our school community. Thank you for being part of this inspiring event!

Acquisitive Art Prize Winner

Well done to Gabriel Lim (Year 11), who won the Acquisitive Art Prize for his artwork 'When Worlds Collide'. This beautiful piece has been purchased by the school and will be proudly displayed as part of our growing collection.

This artwork illustrates an explosion of culture that arises within due to colliding worlds in one's experience. Using famous landmarks and iconography from each nation, I connect my Cambodian, Chinese, and Australian culture to reflect my cultural identity and experience in everyday life. Personal experience, family history, and stories told from generation to generation shape this artwork into a vibrant reflection of how heritage, memory, and place intersect to create a dynamic and evolving cultural identity.
