Arts@Baythorn
Learning through the Arts
allows students to make specific and essential contributions to their
intellectual and aesthetic developments. It allows learners to explore their
feelings and values, to develop physical and perceptual skills and focuses on
collaboration and looking within. The arts help students to make meaning of
many different aspects of life and to make connections between themselves and
others. It stimulates imagination.
Learning through the Arts, provides students with the opportunity to learn how to think
imaginatively, identify and solve problems, empathize with others, think
critically, communicate effectively and appreciate the skills and
accomplishments of others.
Learning through the Arts in a collaborative community, encourages self-expression and creativity and can build confidence as
well as a sense of identity for our students.
At
Baythorn, we believe that arts-related learning experiences, make learning more
effective and satisfying for children regardless of their talent in the arts. Our
belief is that knowledge of music, dance, drama, and visual arts
contribute significantly to the development of well-rounded students. The
arts are central to our school's teaching and learning and where possible
and practical, the arts are used in teaching and reinforcing skills and
concepts in other subjects. In addition, students benefit from this enriched
program.
The impact of the arts on achievement is worthwhile but it is
important to note that it contributes to so much more when looking at the whole
child.
Learning through the
Arts
goes beyond creating more successful students.
We believe that it creates more successful human beings.
The
Arts@Baythorn is an enriched, faced paced, demanding Arts integrated program.
If
you feel your child would be successful in such an environment, please apply to
