✨ Celebrating Excellence in Visual Arts!
A big shoutout to the 28 learners who earned a perfect Semester 1 score across our six Visual Arts classes! 🎨💯
In Visual Arts, students build skills that matter — planning, problem-solving, communication, creative thinking, and so much more. These habits shape confident learners in every subject and in life.
We’re beyond proud of their hard work and artistic growth!
