2019 Year 12 and Prep Mural on Display
On the front of the Prep building facing Nicholson Street is the mural completed by Year 12 and some Prep students in 2019. It was put up over the Christmas holiday break. The overall framework of the design was driven by the Year 12 cohort and depicts a silhouette scene of children running together as they journey through their education at the College. The deliberate use of the same colours as the primary buildings certainly is a sophisticated design feature and, as one drives past the mural into the College carpark or past the school, they will notice the impressive continuity achieved. In the background strips of colours are drawings completed by several Prep students of things they like and enjoy. The Year 12s added key symbols of the conclusion of their thirteen-year journey of education and their move into the wider community. At the base of the image are Year 12 hand prints overlaid to create the appearance of grass, suggesting their individual and collective involvement in all aspects of College life. This collaborative mural was undertaken as a Praxis activity within the Living Your Faith (LYF) program. All students involved enjoyed the process and end product of their work together.
