Crawford Preparatory Sandton embraces the creative arts as a tool for learning and recently celebrated their annual art exhibition off campus.
This year, the exhibition was held at the Morningside Shopping Centre and gave the schoolchildren the thrill of seeing their art in a public space.
Every child from Grade 1 to Grade 5 had artwork on display and selected pieces from grades 6 and 7.
The Grade 7 children visited the exhibition as a group and took part in an interactive activity with reference to the art on display – a core skill learning experience. The art exhibition was a success and enjoyed by everyone.
The art department at Crawford Preparatory Sandton – which consists of Nina Bloom, Elona Shaff and Pam Kaplan – believes that visual art gives children an insight into the world around us, beyond the confines of the classroom.
