• Arts Week in Reception!

  Fri 24 Jun 2022

  Reception have had a fantastic week creating lots of art work all around the element of water! Raindrop silhouettes, swimming pool collages and water pistol art were just a few of our favourites! 

  Here are a few pictures of the finished pieces...

  

• Year 2 - Arts Week

  Fri 24 Jun 2022

  Wow what a busy week we have had. 
  The children have worked so incredibly hard on all their art this week and it has definitely paid off! 
  We've been painting one minute, printing the next. 
  Well done year 2, we are incredibly proud of all your hard work. 
   

  

• Year 3 - Arts Week

  Fri 24 Jun 2022

  Wow! What a busy week it has been in Year 3. The children have had a wonderful week of painting, drawing, sticking and making for Arts Week 2022. 

   

  Year 3 and 4 had the theme of 'earth' and created some lovely art using nature and looked at creating art based on animals and other natural things. They also had a go at some forced-perspective digital art where they tried to make small natural things seem BIG.

   

  All of Year 3 and 4 worked together to create a giant Earth which can been seen at the front of the school near the car park. 

   

  You have produced some great work. Well done Year 3.

  

• Year one - Arts week

  Thu 23 Jun 2022 Mrs i

  What a busy week! ‘Wind’ was our element for arts week. 
  We have used water colour paints, marbling, paint and pencils to create some stunning pieces of art work. The children studied the picture ‘Starry Night’ by Vincent Van Gogh and learnt a little about his life and his paintings. 
  We studied dandelions and created some great pictures. Making kites, was one of the favourite activities and the children had great fun trying to fly them. 

  We hope you enjoyed our art exhibition.

  

• Year 5 Art Week

  Thu 23 Jun 2022

  The children in Year 5 have been enjoying Art Week immensely, creating lots of amazing pieces connected to our theme of ‘fire’.

  In addition to lots of fire-themed artwork, the children have studied the life and works of Pop Art innovator Andy Warhol, and they have all produced beautiful and detailed work in their sketchbooks based on this.

  As well as this, an enormous – and rather ferocious-looking – fire-breathing dragon is beginning to take shape outside 5B.

  The children cannot wait to show you their work.

  

• Year 6 Art Week

  Thu 23 Jun 2022

  We have had a brilliant week creating some fantastic art for Arts Week 2022. The theme this year is the four elements and Year 5 and 6 are creating fire! The children have done so well with their art and we're super proud of the work they have made. 

  

• Year 3 - DT pneumatic models

  Fri 17 Jun 2022

  Year 3 had fun this week experimenting with pneumatic systems - we lifted books, moved objects and make monsters before designing and creating our own pneumatic systems project. Well done to the children for their super creativity, thoughtful designs and careful making skills. 

  

• Year One - Poetry

  Thu 16 Jun 2022 Mrs I

  In English this week, the children have been looking at several poems about 'hands'. We thought about what hands do and wrote our ideas down. The classes wrote poems with a repeating pattern and we had fun practicing and performing them to each other. 

   

  We have taken a few videos of children reading their poems. Why not watch!

• Year 6 Digital Art

  Thu 16 Jun 2022

  This week in art, we concluded our digital art topic. We used Brushes to recreate a landscape we had sketched from the Key Stage One field. 

  

• Year 5 Cams Models

  Thu 16 Jun 2022

  In our Design and Technology topic, the children in Year 5 have created moving toys with cam mechanisms.

  The children have worked really hard to investigate, design and construct their moving toys. To begin with, each child made prototypes to investigate the movement of the various cams. They experimented with a range of cam mechanisms, including hexagonal and snail cams, in order to make their figures move up and down or round and round.

  The children have really enjoyed the project and are very proud of their toys.
