Students have recently been looking at the history of Australian Landscape Painting, and this week were doing some studies of their own.

Last week our Visual Art discussion, under the heading of Our Nation Australia 'All about us'  was    Arthur Streeton, this week we looked at Tom Roberts.

Special Assistance schools threatened with closure      Listen to the ABC Science Show Interview   Saturday 9 December 2017 12:48PM     Schools of the Eagle Arts and Vocational College in Broken Hill, Bligh Park and Kincumber face closure following a damning report by the NSW Education Standards Authority.  The Eagle Arts schools are Special Assistance schools which cater for students who don’t fit in or are rejected by the mainstream school system. An unconventional approach is taken to teaching and principal Gab McIntosh reports surprising results in algebra. But a recent inspection report found the schools noncompliant in a range of areas including staff, curriculum, buildings, child protection and financial reporting. If the report’s recommendations are adopted, the three schools will need to close.
