You can view her artwork at www.petamorris.com The aims of our learning environment My aim as an art educator is to create a learning environment that both engages & identifies students needs. I encourage students to explore & investigate the world around them. Helping recognise, connect & find confidence in their individual creative thought processes. We look towards contemporary artists from across the world to inspire and ignite the imaginations of students and explore a diverse range of mediums and techniques. Numbers are kept to a minimum in classes, so each student is given the individual attention to best assist them with their developmental needs. |
