Art Department Assembly Programme

This is Mr Mohd Raizi.





We are in Term 4, Week 6 of the school academic year and it was the turn of the Art Department to conduct the Assembly Programme. At White Sands Primary School, we want our pupils not only to be able to create their own art works but to also learn and talk about well known personalities in the Art World. Mr Raizi, one of our trained art teachers was invited to talk about the life and art style of architect/artist Antoni Gaudi. During his talk, Mr Raizi showed the school a portrait of Antoni Gaudi and some of his unusual, creative works. The pupils as well as teachers learnt much from Mr Raizi's sharing which was well-delivered and pitched at the pupils' level of understanding. Thank you for doing a great job, Mr Raizi!



Giving away prizes is something which many of us as teachers enjoy doing. After Mr Raizi's delivery of his talk on Antoni Gaudi, we called upon our Principal Mrs Daphne Yeoh to do us the honour of presenting prizes to 6 pupils namely, Au Qiuxin of P6D, Cherylin Tai of P6A, Khairullah of P5B, Lam Yi Xin of P6A, Elysia Chiam of P6A and Annabelle Lim of P6A who won prizes for their outstanding, creative art works submitted for the National Day 2008 Art Competition and Pupil Handbook 2009 Design Competion. Congratulations, everyone, for taking time to share your creativity with us at White Sands. Thanks Mrs Yeoh for taking time off your busy school schedulle to be with us and present prizes to our budding artists.

I enjoyed the assembly talk very much because Antonio Gaudi was a very unique artist. I like the fact that he doesn't like normal things such as round doorknobs and such. It was my first time seeing such bizarre architecture so naturally I was surprised. If I were to stand in front of Mr. Gaudi’s artworks, I would have believed that I was dreaming. This is because certain parts of his artwork seems like it had been pulled out from a nightmare. Nevertheless, I think his art is beautiful in its own way and I think we should make our buildings a little differently, seeing how sometimes weird+unique=picturesque.
