Rooted in our Lasallian ethos, our Visual Arts Learning for Life Programme (LLP) seek to foster in our students the desire to learn about artistic forms and methods, grow an appreciation of art and serve the community with their talents.

LEARN
Learning to appreciate and create art

The Tier 1 programme is incorporated in the school’s Visual Arts (VA) curriculum for all students. As an enhancement to the curriculum, students learn specialised art forms through Digital Art and Ceramics modules from P1 to P6, which strengthen students’ skills progressively.

Digital Art Programme

In our Digital Art programme, Anthonians harness technology to bring their creative visions to life, progressing from basic tools to creating sophisticated static and animated artworks. Through this journey, they develop both artistic skills and digital literacy, learning to navigate the digital creative space responsibly.

Ceramics Programme

Think! Contemporary is a multi-visit, museum-based school programme for our P4 cohort. It integrates the school’s VA curriculum with museum visits and uses artwork from the Singapore Art Museum’s (SAM) permanent collection as primary resources for art lessons to provide an authentic experience in the appreciation and creation of art.

GROW
Deepening interest, appreciation and aptitude

Students who have greater interest or aptitude in VA are encouraged to participate in our Tier 2 programmes to deepen their interest, broaden their horizons and hone their talents.

CCAs: Junior & Senior Art Club

The school offers CCAs for students with a keen interest in VA. The Junior Art Club caters to P1-P3 students, while the Senior Art Club comprises P4-P6 students. While the focus is on ceramics, Art Club members also get to explore varied techniques, forms and mediums to express their creativity.

School-based Art Elective Programme

The school’s own AEP was piloted for P2 in 2008 and has since expanded to include P2 to P6 Anthonians. Students enjoy opportunities to explore different art mediums through specialised modules, such as printmaking, still-life drawing, observational drawing and papier-mâché.

SERVE
Being a blessing to the community

Arts Reach is the school’s outreach to the community through the arts. In line with our Lasallian values of Faith, Service and Community, Arts Reach gives Anthonians opportunities to use the skills they learn in the school’s VA programmes to bless those in the wider community.

Visiting residents at care centres

Students visit elderly residents at Hong Kah North Day Care Centre and St. Luke’s ElderCare Centre to guide them through art activities and give them artwork made by Anthonians.

Hosting art classes for seniors

SAPS supports Family Central’s Intergenerational Learning Programme (ILP), which encourages seniors to sign up for courses. SAPS conducts Ceramics workshops for interested seniors, with Senior Art Club members guiding them through the process. The experience also provides rich opportunities for Anthonians to interact with and learn from the seniors, and reinforces the idea that learning is a joyful and lifelong process.
