Happy Halloween
St. Robert’s yearly tradition of a Halloween celebration and dress up day was held on October 30, 2015, wishing all the students a happy yet haunted Halloween. Students dressed up in their favourite costumes, bringing the school to maximum life and energy.
Arts Week Photography Contest Winner!
In celebration of Arts Week, the Axiom hosted a photography contest based on the prompt of “self-expression through art.” Submissions came in from students of all grades and they were absolutely incredible. However, there is certainly one that best reflected the prompt and it was Linda R-C’s stunning photograph of an art piece contrasted to city buildings in the background. It undoubtedly captures the prompt while demonstrating her talent as a photographer!
Arts Week Contest Winner
To celebrate Arts Week which took place from February 17th to the 20th, the Axiom hosted an art contest with the prompt “art washes away from the soul the dust of everyday life”. There were many great submissions, but the piece that best reflected the prompt was Carlos Chin’s “Titania’s Dusk”. Not only does this piece have a very interesting composition with many bold colours and a nice use of contrast, it captures the significance of the prompt as one can almost feel themselves transported from a mundane world to one that is much more fascinating and surreal through this drawing. Congratulations to Carlos Chin! See Mr. Fabroa in room 247 to pick up your prize. Thank you to all the participants for submitting their art pieces to the newspaper!
