These photographs taken by the Media Club Lower Secondary students are examples of the skills they are taught during their time in the CCA. This wildlife photography activity is designed to develop their observation and camera skills. Each student was assigned an animal to photograph and challenged to capture both close-up and wide-angle shots. The close-up photos focused on details such as texture, colour, and facial features, while the wide shots showed the animal within its surroundings and natural environment. Students practiced adjusting focus, composition, and lighting to achieve clear and engaging images. Through this activity, they gained a deeper appreciation for wildlife and improved their ability to tell visual stories through photography.
