Elizabeth College

Our Visual Arts students have been engaging with Tasmania’s vibrant arts scene through a series of recent excursions to MONA and TMAG, building on earlier visits to exhibitions and galleries across Hobart.

At TMAG, students explored the Becoming Modern exhibition, with curator Ash Kerr generously sharing insights into the works, themes and curatorial decisions behind the exhibition. Earlier in the year, students also visited the University exhibition Against the Instant, as well as the Sun Room Gallery, Art Mob, and the Henry Jones Art Hotel, with students approaching each space from the perspective of the curator. These experiences were enriched by a visit from art critic Lucy Hawthorne here at Elizabeth College.

We now look forward to showcasing our own students’ creativity at the Arts Showcase on Wednesday 1 July and we hope to see you there!

On Monday, we were delighted to welcome prospective students and families to Elizabeth College for our Information Evening. Attendees heard from key staff about the College and opportunities available to students, before heading into our subject expo where they met teachers, explored subject areas and were able to ask questions about pathways and learning at Elizabeth College.

It was wonderful to see so many people engaging with our community and discovering what makes Elizabeth College such a vibrant place to learn.

Our Physical Sciences 2 students have been busy getting hands-on with experiments!

They tested balloon racers, exploring how forces and motion work in action before moving on to calculating speed and measuring results. Students also tried their hand at extracting essential oil from orange peel, which was a great way to see chemistry come to life.

Our History 2 students recently stepped beyond the classroom and into the past with a visit to the Hobart Convict Penitentiary. Exploring one of Tasmania’s most significant heritage sites, students gained a powerful insight into the convict era and the early colonial justice system.
