Her words came as the school’s Year 8 students attended ‘Ideas Unfurled’ on Thursday afternoon.
The hour-long event included eight rotating creative stations including food sculptures, photography, robotics, origami and drawing.

Ms Rafferty said the annual event created a platform for artistic students to participate in and a chance to promote creativity within the school.
“We want students to think creatively,” she said. “And to know that you can have a political or social message and create an artwork around that.”
The event was accompanied by live music from the school band.
