At Heathcote Primary school the arts program enables students to develop their visual, creative and expressive abilities by learning through different art forms.  Students are both the audience and the artist, they make, respond and learn to appreciate a variety of art forms.  The arts contribute towards the development of confident and creative individuals through dance, drama, music and visual arts

Students have the opportunity to learn traditional skills and participate in experimental work by making small and large-scale work, engage in reflective study, active dynamic work, work in individual and group work settings and learn historical and contemporary artists and movements.
