Grade 11 interschools exhibition: This year for the first time, Treverton and Michaelhouse held a combined exhibition to showcase the work of our Grade 11 Visual Arts students. It was a fantastic evening, hosted with great aplomb by Michaelhouse, and enjoyed by all who attended.  It was a lovely opportunity to showcase and acknowledge the quality of work by the grade 11's from both schools; which was impressive, showing both skill and insight. It was also a perfect learning experience for the students in preparation for their Matric year, to understand the importance of the exhibition of Art. Two brave pupils, (one of them being our own Christi Ferreira) gave lovely short speeches on the importance of Art in our lives. Thankyou to Ms Preiss for hosting us, and to the parents and staff who attended, for their support, and very well done to the Grade 11's for their hard work.

 

 

 

 

Recent Art Happenings: Painting Day!

Visual Arts outreach: Painting day at Middlerus Primary School:

Seven pupils and three staff members ventured out to Middlerus this last Saturday to paint a container for Middlerus Primary School. NCT Forestry had donated the container, and asked the Visual Arts department at Treverton College to make it bright and colourful for the Grade R children. The transformation of this plain, white container was amazing. We would have loved to see the faces of the children on Monday morning to see how beautiful and welcoming their classroom looked! Our theme was seasons, so each side was painted accordingly. We were joined by some of the children from the primary school who helped out with the painting, adding their handprints as Autumn leaves! It was a wonderful experience for all, and a great opportunity to use our god-given talents to bless others. Well done & thanks very much to all who were involved.
