Yr 11 Architecture Excusion

Year 11 were fortunate with the opportunity to explore some of Sydney's most iconic structures as part of their Visual Arts unit of work on architecture. Students traveled to the city to visit and participate in a tour of the Sydney Opera House. From there they traveled on foot and via public transport to Frank Gehry's Chau Chak UTS Business School. They investigated other outstanding structures of the campus as well as One Central Park with it's vertical gardens.

The excursion allowed students to understand how audience dictates architecture and the philosophy of certain architects, and what this brings to their designs and structures. Back in the classroom, students will design and model their own architectural structure as part of their Body of Work for Term 2.
