Pre-primary year Syllabus
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 6. It is a requirement that students study a performance subject and a visual subject.
Year Level Description
In Pre-primary, learning in Media Arts builds on the dispositions developed in the early years.
Students engage with purposeful play in structured activities to explore, and become familiar with, signs and symbols that have meaning and purpose.
They explore and experiment with the technical codes and conventions of media to produce media work that communicates a message.
As students make and respond to media work, they explore the images that communicate messages in the community.
