ART NEWS

National Gallery of Victoria

The Grade 4’s visited the National Gallery to see the Australian Quilt exhibition. They

also had a chance to look at other works there by Australian artists. Here are some of

their thoughts about the day:

* I liked the quilts and the paintings. They had so much detail in

them. Anastasija 4M

* I liked so many arts in the gallery. I liked the colourful and the

crazy ones but my favourite one was called ‘The Bridge in Curve’.

Linda 4M

* I liked ‘The Pioneer’ painting because it had a good story.

Bawi 4

* I liked the quilts because they were so large, beautiful and

unique. Phoenix 4J

* I really liked the big art head made out of marble. It was probably

very hard to make. Peter 4M

My favourite part was when I saw the Aboriginal weapons because I got to see what they used.

Alvin 4J

My two favourite things were the sculptures by Bruce Armstrong and the abstract art called

‘Spraygun Virus’ by Tony Gillick. Jaydan 4J

My favourite part was the quilts because they were made in the olden days and they were colour-

ful. Some of them were HUGE! Some of them were made for clothes. WOW! Cindy 4J

My favourite thing was the royal dress. Sofia 4J

International Peace Poster Competition

Kings Park was invited to enter the International Peace Poster Competition

by the Deer Park Lions Club. Many Grade 5 and 6 students created fabulous

posters and these were judged this week by the club’s president. The

winning poster will move on to the next level, the state competition.

Congratulations to all who entered and especially Vikki Vo of 6B for being

our school’s winner.

The runner up posters will be hanging in our corridors. Look out for them.

Good luck Vikki.
