美育 Aesthetics
Explore how Pei Chun Public School brings the arts to every student through curriculum, enrichment programmes, and CCAs. Find out how your child can deepen their interest in art and music from primary school and beyond.
Overview
The Arts should be enjoyed by all students at Pei Chun Public School.
Our school arts curriculum is designed to provide as many varied experiences in the arts for our students. Students who like to pursue a greater interest in the arts can participate in our Aesthetics enrichment and/or take up a Visual & Performing Arts CCA.
Arts Experiences @ Pei Chun Public
Art and Music Curriculum (All P1 - P6 Students)
All students will have 2 periods of Art/Music each week (except 1 period a week for Music for P5 and 6 students).
These are some of the key learning experiences during their Art & Music lessons. As a SAP school, we integrate Chinese cultural experiences in the curriculum for our students to provide them with a robust cultural experience in the arts.
School-Based Aesthetics Programme
1. Celebrations of Learning
This is a bi-termly event where we celebrate the arts and the learning of our students - from exhibitions, performances and hands-on activities where students immerse themselves in the arts through various formats.
Exhibition of Students’ Works
Design my student Diary Competition (Held in Term 4)
Honouring the student’s voice is important for us. We invite students to submit an artwork based on a theme each year. The artworks are then selected by students and then included in the design of the cover pages, inserts and bookmark of the student diary each year - creating a student diary designed by students for students.
Fashion Passion Competition (Opened to P5 and 6)
What better way to apply when they have learnt about the 3Rs into making wearable art? Our P5 and 6 students took up the challenge of designing and making wearable art from the old materials that they can find at home and in school. During the competition, students strut down the runway and display their innovative pieces!
