After going on our local area walk yesterday we were inspired to design our own homes. We think we could build them on the empty plot next door to school. See what you think!

Inspired by the wonderful Egyptian artefacts and the magnificent sketches of Howard Carter, Year Four have been studying proportion to improve their observational skills and sketching techniques.
We studied our artefacts from a range of viewpoints and used a variety of media to record them. We combined the three images to create a beautiful Egyptian Triptych which will be gifted to our families as our annual calendar.
Some on our work has been sent to Ferens Art Gallery in Hull,
to be displayed within the Junior Open Exhibition which we are incredibly excited and proud about!
Take a peek at this link for a virtual tour, can you spot our Triptychs?

As Artists in Y3 today, the children enjoyed creating their own cave art images of some wonderous and magnificent creatures. Pastels, charcoal and chalks were utilised and blended to create various muted tones so as to replicate the colour schemes found in some of the images we explored from the Stone Age era. Everyone enjoyed the activity and were very proud of their creations!
Here are some of our artists at work…

Year 2 have been taking inspiration from the artist, Alexander Calder, to create some incredible sculptures.
Firstly, children created circles and hoops with coloured paper.
Then, they worked in small groups to attach their circles together.
After that, the attached circles were put together with wire.
Children then attached spheres to the wire to complete their group’s sculpture.
Finally, 3 groups’ sculptures were attached to another piece of wire to create one huge sculpture.
