Visual Arts

Marrickville Intensive English Centre (MIEC) has a vigorous learning environment and our students participate in a visual arts program, where they learn to use the English language to discuss and respond to art and learn about the enjoyment of making art. The visual arts program aims to enable students to move towards linguistic, conceptual and creative autonomy.

Visual arts education is increasingly more relevant in our visually literate society and a significant subject in the curriculum for students to develop deeper learning about themselves and the world they live in.

As part of our ongoing commitment to a rich learning program all students participate in visual arts excursions to significant exhibitions and galleries, external workshops and special skills classes such as photography and animation.
