We provide a wide range of opportunities for children to explore, create and be inspired, including:
- Creating portraits of famous people
- Designing Well Dressings
- Taking photographs
- Exploring mixed media
- Discovering both new and historical artists
- Taking part in our Happiness in Nature Project
- Contributing to our whole-school Remembrance Poppy Project
- Whole School Art Exhibition
Our fabulous art exhibition celebrated the creativity, imagination, and talent of our children, who proudly showcased an incredible collection of artwork inspired by a range of fantastic artists. As part of the project, the children spent time with their new class and teachers, collaborating together, sharing ideas, and building new relationships while creating their own unique masterpieces.
We were incredibly proud of the creativity, enthusiasm, and confidence they demonstrated in expressing their artistic ideas. The exhibition was a wonderful opportunity to celebrate their hard work and achievements with families and the wider school community, and we hope everyone enjoyed seeing their inspiring creations.
