"Students have worked tirelessly finishing their art during the lockdown and have produced some superb pieces," principal Peter Nicholls said.
"There were a variety of expressive forms this year such as printmaking, sculpture, painting and drawing."
The students were inspired by their local surroundings, past powerful artists, impacts of global events and their wonderful imaginations, Mr Nicholls said.
The school thanked Mrs Lyndall Laurie for her "brilliant guidance" and for making their last art lesson so memorable.
The students submitted their major projects on Monday, September 6, with face-to-face learning resuming the following Monday (September 13) for students and teachers.
This came after the the Mid Coast local government area lockdown was lifted on Friday evening, September 10.
"Thank you for your ongoing support of our staff and the school community," Mr Nicholls said.
"We look forward to seeing our students and their teachers back in the classrooms collaborating and learning together."
