Portrait of your Teacher – Portrait Competition

Portrait of your Teacher - Portrait Competition

Every day, our teachers are making a positive difference – empowering minds of the young people and proudly teaching future creatives, innovators and influencers.

At Amity we value the Creative Arts and so the executives very generously support an Art Award to celebrate International Teacher’s day.

“Portrait of Your Teacher” competition gives you an opportunity to acknowledge our teachers and say thanks for the significant contributions they make to our community.

There is a prize pool of over $500 including many art gift cards kindly donated by Eckersley’s.
There are 3 categories:

· Year 6

· Years 7 & 8

· Years 9 -11

There will be a guest judge who works in the arts field. (To be announced shortly).

Judging will take place after 22nd October and will be based on

· Creativity and imagination

· Technical skill
