Natasha Newman, from our Opportunity Class 5/6C, has had her crayon drawing selected as one of forty-nine from over 460 artworks to be displayed in the Department of Education and Communities offices in Sydney. Natasha's bright and colourful depiction of Coffs Harbour's jetty and harbour will soon be enjoyed by the many visitors to these offices.
The 'Primary Colours' exhibition was instigated by the NSW Primary Principal's Association, inviting NSW primary students to produce an artwork especially for senior members of staff. Each staff member selected a topic from which students could choose using paint, crayon, pencil or pastels.
Those artworks not selected for exhibit were auctioned with more than $4000 raised for the Department's charity, Stewart House.
