Established in 2008, the Moran School Photographic Workshop Program fosters creativity amongst school students in years 3 to 12. The free workshops aim to introduce children to a new way of seeing via the art of photography, encouraging individual and collaborative creativity, building self-confidence and time stamping a wonderful school experience in their minds. The workshops are run in a fun and creative way, providing an opportunity to develop important social skills within the familiar school environment.
I would like to express our thanks for the recent workshop. The students absolutely loved it and are full steam ahead exploring photography. They responded very positively to Louise’s presentation of her work and it was such a rich experience for them to be able to ask questions and delve quite deeply into the way Louise works. The full day was fantastic as it allowed time for experimentation and really opened the student’s eyes to the versatility of the photographic medium. Our classroom teachers reflected that it was such a great way (through Louise’s powerful images) to start some rich discussions around Human Rights which are their current area of focus. Thanks again for giving the students such an amazing, authentic experience.
