The Art Department has been an extremely busy environment recently. Our major event of the 2010-11 academic year, the annual art exhibition, was well-attended, with all of the GCSE, AS and A2 Level students bringing their families to see the exhibition in the first few days. It attracted visitors from right across the island of Cyprus, the UK and Russia. It has become such an important annual event that even parents of students living abroad travelled especially to see it.
