Philosophy
By using the visual arts as a medium to engage students
in a real encounter of the world outside the classroom. To educate in the light of ideas and abilities, to challenge students
with a series of ethical choices about what is worth doing, and which aspects of reality need focus and attention, what needs
to be changed and why. To educate in the light of a sensitive, intelligent, self-governing and self-directed student.
