Visual Art

In HS, we hope to be an active platform for our students to experience, explore and enjoy Art. We encourage them to record, observe and make meaning of what they see, allowing them to understand the values and relevance of art in our world.

Our Goals:

1. To create an environment with opportunities for students to develop a critical eye for visual art and demonstrate ingenuity in their art making process.
2. Provide in-school, as well as, out-of-school experiences to inspire and cultivate art appreciation in students.
3. Encourage expression and reflection of thoughts through the making and critique of art.

We encourage every student to recognise the value of art through its historical and cultural context.

Lower Secondary Art
Lower Secondary Art lessons aim to give students a glimpse of the various art media. The art lessons are prepared to encourage creative expression and imaginative play in the art making process whilst taking the core learning experiences into consideration which are foundational experiences that provide students with a holistic understanding of Art and are unique to the learning of Art.

Art Competitions
Our students are given opportunities to participate in Art Competitions and events and have received accolades in major art events, such as Singapore Youth Festival Art Exhibition, IgnITE Skills Challenge, National Organ Transplant Unit Live On Festival Design Competition, VIArt, SLS Avatar Design Competition, Comic Strip and more.

We are proud to share that our school has achieved awards in these competitions.

Below are the list of our winners:

Secondary 3 Art Enrichment and Learning Journeys

Secondary 3 Art students can look forward to an exciting range of media, such as ceramics, digital art, painting, photography and printmaking.

On top of that, students also have the opportunity to get inspired and broaden their learning experiences beyond the walls of the classroom. The unit organized Learning Journeys to Art events such as ART STAGE, SYF Exhibition and visits to Secondary schools (Victoria, Zhong Hua, CHIJ, Orchid Park), Art Museums and Art Exhibitions, most recently Batik Kita Exhibition at Asian Civilisation Museum and Vincent Van Gogh Immersive Exhibition at Resorts World.

HS hosted a three-day school visit with Haikou No 1. Middle school and our Art Unit was delighted to share a hands-on Art lesson with them. Students recreated the beautiful plants found at our Singapore Botanical Gardens on ceramic tiles.

Inter-disciplinary Museum-based learning

Students were introduced to artworks by local and international artists, offering them the chance to appreciate and craft literary responses through poem-writing. The lesson was led by the Art and English Literature Unit.

Over the past year, our HS E-gallery and Art learning wall have served as valuable resources and teaching tools in our Art curriculum.
