Highlights from the Year 11 Visual Arts students - Term 2





Postcard Competition
Back in April, we ran an art competition in order to revamp our Postcards of Praise. Our McAuley postcards are used to give positive praise to students who display our Mercy Values. Respect, Compassion, Justice, Hospitality and Excellence. What better way to promote student excellence than having students work on the postcards.
We had quite a few entries from students but there was one clear winner. The winner is Imogen lee for her painting of Sandon. Congratulations Imogen, keep an eye out in the mail for your positive notes from your teachers.
In other news….
The Let’s Hang It! Exhibition held at New England Regional Art Museum in Armidale each year is a competition run by The University of New England and it is a prize that is open to students in the northern half of NSW that demonstrate the application of a very high standard and technical skill.
This year there were 591 entries from 46 schools. There were 60 finalists selected for the exhibition and in the running for the major prize is Alex Salevestro (Year 11) for his painting on canvas. The opening night is on the 29th of July. All the best of luck to Alex for this upcoming event.
