foreword

In our second annual edition of Trove, we commemorate the extraordinary talents of our students in the learning areas of Visual Arts, English and Media. Our students have been inventive in their work, proving that taking risks and breaking rules is key to developing creativity.

Our Art students have used a range of media to offer thought-provoking compositions in various shapes, forms, colours and textures. Our English students have manipulated language style, and structure to produce brilliant imaginative, interpretive, persuasive, and analytical texts. And lastly, our Media students have engineered visual and written elements in digital forms to create impressive film posters.

We feel very fortunate to be able to edit and curate this anthology and we hope you enjoy it as much as last years!
