STUDENT PERSPECTIVE
YEAR 5 REFLECTION SOPHIA & KYLE YEAR 5 SRC
On Monday 5 th August our Year 5 cohort went to the National Gallery of Victoria (NGV). We went through a range of artistic mediums, which means materials that are used to create a work of art. We viewed a range of artworks that were inspired by the creativity of the presentations and displays. We had an amazing time exploring lots of cool artworks, drawings, and paintings. The gallery was like a giant treasure chest full of incredible creations, and each piece had its own unique style and story. One of the most exciting parts was seeing the different textures and materials used in the art. Some paintings looked so smooth and shiny, while others looked rough and bumpy. We saw artworks made from all kinds of materials, like shiny metals, soft fabrics, and even some that looked like they were made from natural things like wood and stone. It was fascinating to see how the artists used these different textures to create their pieces. The colours in the artworks were really vibrant and varied. Some paintings had bright, bold colours that seemed to jump out at us, while others used softer, more muted shades. It was amazing to see how the artists used colors to express different feelings and ideas. We especially liked the way some artworks used a mix of colours to create interesting patterns and effects. We also saw lots of different kinds of art, from traditional paintings to modern and abstract pieces. It was interesting to see how different artists have their own unique styles and ways of expressing themselves. Some artworks told stories, while others were more about shapes and colours. Overall, the NGV excursion was a fantastic experience. It gave us a chance to see art in a whole new way and appreciate the creativity and skill of the artists. Thanks to Ms Duong for organising our awesome Art excursion.

In Textiles we had a free choice to make a plushie toy. Some of us made teddy bears with different stitching designs and pillows. The VIA students will be going out to an op shop to purchase material for their designs. In Math, we have been working through our textbook to understand measurements, time and converting distance. Our last CAT was on mini golf and we had to work out the amount of wood needed by measuring the perimeter of the golf course.
