Year 11 Visual Arts
Six Year 11 Visual Arts students have been accepted into the National Art School HSC Intensive Studio Practice Program for 2026. This is an exceptional achievement as students had to submit a portfolio of artworks in a specific art discipline, competing against a strong calibre of applicants from across the state. To be selected from hundreds of applicants is a testament to these students’ dedication, creativity, and the strength in their Visual Arts practice.
 

The HSC Intensive Studio Practice is a 1 unit (60 hours) course, run externally at NAS, Darlinghurst during the school holidays. Students will be taught by university lecturers and artists in this historical site. We congratulate the following students and look forward to sharing their resolved artworks at the conclusion of the course:

  • Keira Dasgupta
  • Amelie George
  • Sabella Hayduk
  • Lydia Lok
  • Katelyn Rookes
  • Laura Tambasco

Year 11 Visual Arts students recently enjoyed a half‑day excursion to the Sistine Chapel Exhibition: Revelations, where they marvelled at the impressive large‑scale ceiling displays inspired by Michelangelo’s work. The experience was enriched by the guidance of Mr Clark and Ms Millett, who offered valuable insights from both Religious Education and Visual Arts perspectives. The excursion provided a meaningful opportunity for students to deepen their appreciation of sacred art through both creative and theological lenses.
