Year 7 students have been learning about textures and mark making this year and have used these skills to render their own versions of Van Gogh’s masterpieces.
This term Year 12 IB pupils have started a new topic on sculpture. To inspire them, we visited the Bangkok Sculpture Center which celebrates sculptural art of Thailand.
The collection shows work from the ancient Buddhist period to the rise of the modern era which has been influenced by the history, social issues and transitions of Thailand.
The pupils thoroughly enjoyed their day and have come back bursting with creative ideas, so come and see their sculpture exhibition next term!
This week the children have been working on their creative skills in the Early Years. The children loved making a range of crafts and having them displayed around the classrooms and shared area. Expressive arts and design involves enabling children to explore and play with a wide range of media and materials, as well as providing opportunities and encouragement for sharing their thoughts, ideas and feelings through a variety of activities. Well done Early Years!

The Year 10 Art students have working hard this term on their first piece of coursework, they have been learning about tone and values. They were asked to choose an image by an Artist they admired, we studied the tonal values, how the Artist was able to render the shapes and how to create Form within our work.
Here are a few of their beautiful pencil studies, for a closer look come and see them in the foyer of the Secondary building.
This summer, the new year 10 Art students were set a task of drawing a still life. They had to choose 3 or 4 similar objects and juxtapose them in an interesting composition. It is so important to keep practising your drawing skills, especially over an 8 week holiday. Their work is fantastic and I am looking forward to seeing more of their work!
