The Art Outreach Programme seeks to bring art education to every school in Singapore and thereby to:
Our volunteers are trained every month in an art topic to be presented to schools. Our volunteer teacher is given a class which they will visit no more than 12 times during the course of the year. The goals is that each class be exposed consistently throughout the year to the programme and that presentations of portfolios are NOT a one-off experience.
Each volunteer will visit the school every month at the agreed time to present the portfolio to the students. The portfolios and their contents are then discussed in an interactive, informal way, to stimulate the students' interest in the topic, to inspire additional research, and even creative use of the topics.
Once schools are registered with us, they have a choice to assign any one level of their classes to receive art presentations. Classes on this level then receive it every month until the next year, at which time the next year's classes of the same level are then scheduled to receive the presentations. This way, we try to ensure that most students will receive the programe at some stage during their school life.
