Secondary sources: What information can you find from books or online? Here are some websites to get you started...
Have you searched Orbit?
Click here to look for books we have in the library about art, theatre, dance and all forms of expressing yourself.
If Orbit does not appear immediately, select Peak School, then Orbit on the top right next to the log in.
Search for the subject you are interested in (Mozart? Opera? Aboriginal Art?) and don't forget to select "non-fiction" and then "target".
You could pop into the library and browse our picture books and graphic novels to search for inspirational art.
Graphic Artist - Sonia Leong
We have a number of books by graphic artist Sonia Leong in the library (and signed by her). She visited Peak School to talk to us about the genre of Manga art and taught some of our lucky students how to draw manga style! If you want to know how, you can borrow her books from the library and follow her instructions.
Click here to do a safe search on Kiddle
Choose your search words carefully. Try "art works for kids" or "opera for kids" and so on.
