to Discovery Arts & Culture Festival 2014-15 Now in it’s seventh year, Discovery College’s Arts Festival is evolving to be even more inclusive and celebratory of the wonderful cultural elements of our community and the world around us.

With this evolution, the official title has become the ‘Discovery Arts & Culture Festival’.

On the cultural side, this year sees activities, electives and exhibitions including reflections on students’ extraordinary No Boundaries experiences, local Cantonese artist studio visits, Chinese watercolour painting, Japanese drumming, African tribal story telling, Chinese dragon dance and Brazilian capoeira.

Alongside these exciting events, the arts and culture definition stretches further from workshops in graffiti art and DJing, to movie making and film dubbing, cake decorating, creative writing, comic story telling, singing, stage fighting, app building and costume design.

This kaleidoscope of experiences allows a step sideways for our students to experience things that they may not get the opportunity to sample in their classroom programme. Where possible the activities are tied to classroom activities and units of inquiry. Sometimes they simply provide our students with an opportunity to expand their experiences and benefit from different perspectives on arts and culture.

This Festival would not be possible without the wonderful work and support of the College’s teaching and support staff and the work of volunteers from our PTA and parent body, led by Elspeth Shaw, Koren Thomas and Lauren Gordon. Our appreciation goes out to them once more.

ULTURE Festival

A note from the DCPTA The Discovery College Parent Teacher Association is proud to support and fund Discovery Arts & Culture Festival 2014-15.

It is a joy to see our students take part in a week of extraordinary drama, music, dance and visual arts activities, which they would likely not otherwise experience.

DCPTA

This year we are again privileged to have artists from Hong Kong and overseas take part in the Festival. Our thanks goes to Faust International Youth Theatre Company, Judyanna Li, Capoeira Hong Kong and DMR School of Ballet for their continued support.

We also look forward to welcoming all the new and exciting artists who will take part in Discovery Arts & Culture Festival for the first time.

There are a number of events which parents are warmly invited to attend.

The Festival will start with the everpopular ‘Carnival Parade’, where students and teachers can dress as their favourite artist, musician, actor, dancer etc, or in a costume that represents their home country or culture. The week will showcase Discovery Arts & Culture Festival

our students’ artistic talents through a number of events, including a Diploma ‘Work in Progress’ visual arts exhibition, the staging of ‘Vinegar Tom’ by senior drama students, a Year 12 & 13 Diploma Film Night, ‘buskers corner’ and, on December 10, the College will host an Ensemble Evening.

Do check this programme for when these activities will take place.

If you have younger children, don’t miss the Scotty & Lulu show! During the Festival, the DCPTA is bringing these award-winning international children’s theatre performers to DC for a show full of their trademark songs, dance, fun and laughter. The duo will perform on December 5, 4-5pm, in the Performing Arts Theatre. For tickets go to www.ticketingover.com or visit the DC PTA Shop.

The Festival Committee is made up of a wonderful group of parents and staff who share a passion for bringing the arts in all their forms into Discovery College. We would like to thank the teachers and support staff for all their help, and the many parents who give their time to be a part of the Festival – whether helping to run senior electives, playing music, telling stories, sharing their cultural heritage, or meeting

and greeting our visiting artists and educators. The Festival could not happen without them and is all the richer because of their participation.

We would also like to thank those parents and businesses who have generously contributed as Patrons of Arts & Culture Festival.

Festival funding is provided by the DCPTA. Support from parents at PTA functions and events helps enable us to support this special event and to bring international and local artists into our school to work with students and encourage their love and understanding of the art and culture that surround them.

We hope you enjoy the 2014-15 Discovery Arts & Culture Festival.

Chinese watercolour painting is one of the world’s oldest continuing artistic traditions, dating back to early imperial China around 200BC. Using subtle colours and an economy of strokes, it beautifully conveys messages in its uniquely Chinese style.

Students, mentored by Yuk Lin Judyanna Li, will focus on nature and landscapes, complementing a Unit of Inquiry Year 3s will be undertaking into How We Express Ourselves, with a focus on nature.

Street Dance with DMR Primary Event

Street dance refers to dance styles—regardless of country of origin—that evolve outside of dance studios in open spaces such as streets, dance parties, parks, school yards and clubs. They are often improvisational and social in nature, encouraging interaction and contact with spectators and other dancers.

Year 5 students will learn some popular street dance moves in workshops with DMR School of Ballet teacher Jane Herrlich at this year’s Arts & Culture Festival.

Jane has taught ballet, tap, modern, jazz and street dance in the UK, Germany and here in Hong Kong and is an experienced choreographer for amateur and professional performance groups. Earlier this year she co-choreographed and performed in DMR’s 30th Anniversary show ‘Ask Alice’.

Street Dancing Year 5 Workshops Thursday 4 December

Our Community

Parents Share their Culture, Heritage and Love of Art Parent storytelling has become an important and much-loved part of the Festival. Parents from across Primary will be coming into the classrooms to share their cultures and traditions through storytelling and music.

Graffiti Art Discovery College is delighted to have contemporary artist Miguel Souchon running graffiti workshops with Year 9 students. Miguel (aka Hobsek, as he’s known in the graffiti world) is a graphic and product designer as well as graffiti artist, who began his career in his home town of Montpellier, France. Miguel “loves to add life and colour to an otherwise mundane cityscape” with his creations. He is known for his style of cute characters and enjoys “painting letters applying unique techniques and creating characters that bridge across both the real and graphic worlds; blending a combination of styles through my inspirations and self-creations”.

Miguel says there are exciting developments in the graffiti art scene in Asia.

“It is very interesting for me to witness and be a part of this new wave in Asia which is bringing new perspectives and adding fresh blood and different cultural approaches to the art form,” he says.

“The coming years are going to be very exciting!”

No Boundaries Bamboo Grove Come and see our special bamboo sculpture, created by senior students during their Electives Day on 9 December. The sculpture will be used to display images that reflect on the experiences of our Year 10-12 students on their No Boundaries trips in November.

No Boundaries saw our students travelling to countries including China, Cambodia, Indonesia, Vietnam, Malaysian Borneo and the Philippines. The programme introduced students to experiences that they would not meet in the confines of the classroom, developing their independence and interpersonal skills by being placed outside of their comfort zones. Through No Boundaries, students are encouraged to develop an understanding and appreciation of different cultures and communities and, where appropriate, empathy for those who have less access to resources than they do.

The bamboo sculpture will display students’ No Boundaries reflections in images from 10 December. The sculpture will be able to be stored and used in future as a divider, display space, and screen that celebrates creativity in an important, sustainable, local material.
