Junior Lightbox Achievements

In Lightbox, assessments are based around the assessment frameworks of NCEA and its terminology. This is in order to allow our visual arts students to use terminology and assessment protocols that will naturally lead to NCEA Level 1 and beyond. If students are succeeding with the assessments they are working at Level 5 of the New Zealand Curriculum and have the foundational skills and knowledge to aid them in attaining at Level 1 NCEA at Year 11.

Students will submit evidence at the end of the semester as a portfolio of work that is gathered from a range of tasks.
Students will be assessed against 3 of the 4 assessments.

1A. Achievement

Use Visual Arts practice to explore Aotearoa New Zealand's Māori foundational context and another cultural context within the framework of design and photography.
