RMPS Art Show 2025

Roberts McCubbin Primary School is named after two great Australian artists, Tom Roberts and Frederick McCubbin, who painted their iconic Australian bush landscapes in the Box Hill South area. We take inspiration from and honour these artists in our school song and through two of our core school values  creativity and endeavour.

RMPS has a strong history of engaging our students in creative pursuits through our dedicated arts program.

This year we celebrate 30 years and are excited to share the talents of our local arts community and to raise funds for the RMPS arts program.

Our exhibition showcases the work of local established and emerging artists from a variety of artistic disciplines including oil, water colour, photography, sculpture and mixed media.

Art Show 2025

In 2025 the RMPS Art Show will celebrate its 30 th year!

We are excited to announce our guest artists for 2025 are Melinda Campbell and Craig Mackie.

Craig has been painting since 2008 and focuses on “buildings and landscapes in our everyday lives we give little notice to”, especially those around the Box Hill area. Melinda has been painting for over 20 years and draws her inspiration from nature, “revelling in the flow of colour, light, line and shape” that she keen observes in her natural surroundings.
