Young Masters Program
Balcatta Senior High School continues to run the Young Masters Program.
The Gifted and Talented Visual Art program at Balcatta Senior High School is proud to offer art classes to Year 5 and Year 6 students across the metropolitan area. Enrolment for the classes is open to our local feeder and surrounding primary schools.
Classes are held on Saturdays from 9.30 am to 12.00 noon for six weeks. Come and join our Gifted and Talented Visual Art students and work with industry specialist tutors to learn some of the fundamentals of art making, including drawing, painting and print making. Art classes are held at the Ron Murphy Gallery in Poincaire Street (eastern end car park, up the stairs, second landing and turn left into the gallery).
