Aberfeldie Primary School has a well-equipped Art room with all students from Foundation to Year 6 participating in weekly art classes with a specialist Art Teacher. 2019 was the grand opening of our new Art space. Nikki Daley has worked to create a space that is inviting and provides an essential art experience for our students.
The Victorian Curriculum is used as a base for planning and all students are involved in creating, making, presenting and reflecting on their art works. The students explore the areas of painting, drawing, construction, printing, collage, modelling and textiles. Activities build upon the students’ skills and knowledge and their appreciation of art. Visual Arts classes give students the opportunity to develop and broaden their creative skills and celebrate their work with students’ art work prominently displayed around the school.
Aberfeldie Primary School has excellent physical education facilities with a well-equipped gymnasium, oval, large play spaces and netball courts. Sam Cheshire is our Physical Education Teacher and takes all students from Foundation-Year 6 for a weekly Physical Education lesson.
The Physical Education program is based on the movement and physical activity dimensions of the Victorian Curriculum. The focus of the program is to engage students in activities that demonstrate and promote the benefits of a healthy and active lifestyle. The Physical Education program develops students’ confidence and motivation to use and develop their movement skills, improve their performance and maintain a healthy level of fitness. At Aberfeldie we value inclusion, innovation and success. Through our Physical Education program, students develop an understanding and appreciation of cooperative, competitive sports and games. Students learn the concept of fair play and the value of positivity. We believe our programs allow our children to develop a powerful understanding of the importance of maintaining a healthy lifestyle.
