Year 7
Student Work
Students in Visual Arts have enjoyed the challenge of learning how to use Adobe Photoshop to create digital artworks. Students have cloned themselves and then used Photoshop to create a self portrait artwork. Please view the artworks by Archie Kerr and Jack Hutchings. Well done to these two students for their creativity and engagement with the task.
Zoom Protocols
A few friendly reminders for our Yr 7 students
- Students are required to wear their Sport Uniform (not a hoodie – fleeces are to be worn instead).
- Students must enter the Zoom lesson with their video turned on and their sound muted.
- Students are also required to use their full name in order to identify themselves and not a nickname or emoji.
- Redlands take each students’ security and safety very seriously and require these protocols be met in each and every Zoom lesson – if there is an issue, the class teacher will make contact, and we deeply appreciate those parents who have worked with us this week to support their child to comply with these protocols.
- If there are any technical issues with your child’s laptop/network connection, please do let me know so I can email all class teachers and get isupport to assist your child with the issue.
