The Arts The Arts MR DALE PARTRIDGE Dance at Centenary State High School develops an awareness of the body and its movements. Through Choreography, students will learn to create dances by adding actions and making them interesting using space, time and energy. Performance studies will involve doing dances and perfecting the use of the bodyline, rhythm, energy and use of the space, while Appreciation tasks will involve viewing live and videoed dances and analysing them. Dance allows you to achieve broad learning outcomes from levels 4 to 6 and beyond. Taking this subject builds confidence, helps communication, teaches time management, keeps you fit and is plenty of fun. Drama is a performing arts subject available from Year 9 to 12 which involves a development of performing skills such as vocal and physical training, acting techniques and performance styles. Broad varieties of theatrical styles are studied, from clowning and mime through to scriptwriting and directing, giving students a solid grounding in all aspects of theatre. This subject will also assist students in building confidence in the public arena and provides opportunities to explore and develop social and interpersonal skills and understanding. Music at Centenary SHS is designed to maximise the value of music as it exists in students day to day living in contemporary society. Music learning fosters social interaction and the development of transferable skills useful to lifelong education. The course of study is designed to allow students to engage in a variety of musical experiences across a range of styles and genres, and to develop practical skills leading to confident musical expression. Students are assessed in three areas: Composing, Listening and Performing. Media Studies is a subject which explores digital and film media texts through various technologies. They learn to understand the way images and ideas are presented and represented through still and moving images. It equips students to create media texts and to be critically analytical of the media texts which impact on their identity and culture through advertising, the internet, television and film as well as small digital mobile media. Students are assessed in three areas which include the design, production and critique of media texts using various technologies in both still and moving images as well as written texts. The aim of the subject is to provide students with the skills and knowledge to live and communicate in a global community. Visual Art is a personal, imaginative yet powerful means of communication and expression. Students at Centenary SHS make visual ideas, thoughts, feelings and statements about their world through their images and objects they make. In their course of study, they explore various 2D and 3D media such as drawing, painting, ceramics, printmaking, fibre arts, photography and digital imaging to create meaningful works of art. In the process of making, appraising and displaying their work, students apply perceptual and conceptual understanding of visual language. They learn how to think laterally and problem solve in an ever changing and pervasive world of visual communication whether at leisure or work.
