Arts Week Day One

Date: 22nd May 2018 @ 11:47am

The Giraffes started the day learning about the Commonwealth.They then looked at the work of Cynthia McLean, an artist from Trinidad and Tobago. In their sketch books the children experimented creating action pictures in her style, in readiness to create masterpieces tomorrow using pastels. During the afternoon the class went out in groups to work with an artist Peter Bourne. They painted poppies on the chimney and decorated fish sculptures. In the classroom we added the finishing touches to our musical memories cards for our memory box to be presented at the Dance from the Heart event  after half term. To finish the day the children had great fun composing songs about the Commonwealth.
