Art project

As a whole school, we are currently working with Daphne Wright who is an Irish visual artist. Each class is going to have a special talking stick in the classroom which the children can use to take turns to speak in lessons such as PSHE. Every class has designed their own talking sticks and Daphne will be taking the children's ideas to put into the final designs. 

Take a look at year 4 using junk modelling to create their idea of what a talking stick could look like.

Red Lodge Trip

On Tuesday the 13th of December we visited the Red Lodge for a Portrait workshop. The children got the opportunity to look around the red lodge, learn about the history and try on some Tudor clothing. We ended the session sketching a portrait of Lady Joan Young.

Roman Coins



Continuing with our Topic learning, the children have been busy using clay to create their own Roman coins. Children worked in the art room using a range of tools to create coins, writing on either numbers or drawing on pictures of leaders and gods.

Take a look at our work below.
