Art is another extremely popular subject with both boys and girls. This interst is, unlike the other fine arts, primarily pursued within the academic confines of art classes and in the individual's free time. There are many opportunities to help decorate classrooms and other school areas. Seasonal holidays are a great oppottunity for the children to demostrate their skills. School plays also require a great deal of work on sets. There is less opportunity for group activities at school, although there are school art exhibitions which never fail to draw considerable attention. Some of the art of the senior students is quite impressive, but the art work of the younger children can provide interesting insights on their school experience.
