The syllabus is based on the requirement that all students will study at least two of the five Arts subjects from Pre-primary to Year 8. It is a requirement that students study a performance subject and a visual subject.
Year Level Description
In Year 1, learning in Media Arts builds on the dispositions developed in the early years.
Students experiment with familiar signs and symbols, used in different contexts, to communicate an idea or story.
They explore and experiment with technical codes and conventions, and are introduced to audio and written codes to produce media work to share with others.
As students make and respond to media work, they express ideas and feelings about media work they view and produce.
