At ÂÜÀòžž Christian School, we recognise that man is created in God’s image, and as such all humanity possesses the basic creative equipment of the artist – ideas, emotions and experience of life. We are able to appreciate, imagine, be playful and innovative. Photography and Digital Imaging/Multimedia caters to our imaginative and explorative ability by encouraging learning through personal expression, selectivity and interpretation. Through making and studying, we can know, enjoy and evaluate the visual aesthetic of God’s creation and the visual expressions of humanity.
