BUNGAREE Primary School students have been enjoying an arts challenge with artists in residence Kitsiri De Silva and Louise Snook.
The ‘Awesome Arts Creative Challenge 2018’ project is ‘Different Voices’, interpreted through artworks that explore what different cultures mean to them.
The hope is that the artworks created by the students could be made into anything from a book to a film.
The completed artworks will be unveiled at a community celebration at the end of the week where parents, teachers and community members will be invited.
