Hazelhurst Excursion

OLM Visual Arts students from Years 9, 10, 11, and 12 recently embarked on an enriching excursion to the Hazelhurst Arts Centre to view the prestigious ARTEXPRESS 2026 exhibition.

This annual showcase features a curated selection of outstanding HSC Body of Work submissions from the previous year’s Visual Arts cohort across New South Wales.

For our senior students in Years 11 and 12, the visit provided a vital benchmark for the technical and conceptual rigour required for their own upcoming major works. For our Years 9 and 10 elective students, it served as an inspiring preview of the diverse expressive forms available to them in the senior years. 

Witnessing the resolved practice of high-achieving HSC students has already sparked significant discussion, with many students now eager to experiment with new materials and conceptual frameworks in their own studio practice.

2026 Musical

Rehearsals are underway for our upcoming combined College Musical with De La Salle College Caringbah, Shrek Jnr.
