Art Day
Art Day saw our pupils engaged in a myriad of art activities providing a real
feast for the eyes! Internal workshops complimented those of the external
artists. Nursery was inspired by Van Gogh producing two magnificent
canvasses; Kindergarten used toy cars to create patterns on canvas made by
their wheels in the style of Jackson Pollock. Year 1 worked with an array of
textiles, making wooden spoon dolls and hula hoop weaving. Meanwhile,
Michelangelo would have been proud of Year 2 as they attempted to work
lying underneath their desks simulating the working environment that the
Sistine Chapel posed for the great artist.
The human desire to be creative and expressive knows no boundaries and
this was a wonderful example of the fact that there are no limits to
imagination in children. They embraced their own creative nature as they
worked with classical music in the background. There was a very industrious
feel to the day but in an incredibly calm atmosphere; it was wonderful to see
the children so inspired by Art.
