THERE is artistic talent in abundance at Tooradin Primary School and they don’t mind showing it off.
The school held an art expo to highlight the variety of techniques and materials students get to explore in art class.
The week-long expo showcased students abilities in weaving, sketching, printing, dioramas, computer graphics, wax creations, masks, wire sculptures and silhouettes.
Baking was also on the agenda with a cake decorating display and sales of home-made chicken and corn soup, pumpkin soup and pikelets served by the students in their chef hats.
