Art Gallery

This page is full of photographs of children's art works so is therefore very graphic intensive.  Please be patient while their works of art load up.

Westfield Park Primary School is proud of the wide range of art forms produced by students each year.  Our school does not have a specialist Art teacher so art forms a part of each teacher's integrated learning program.
