The Manual and Domestic Arts Club

Art gives meaning to our lives and helps us understand our world. Through introducing our children to different kinds of art and techniques we help them develop their creativity, give them inspiration and new ideas, help better understand their emotions and, of course, it is an incredible leisure time activity.

During the art club students tried different art techniques such as painting with flour, creating paintings using cotton pads, designing figures from salt dough.

The salt dough:

 1 cup of salt

 1 cup of flour

 1 cup of water

 Mix all ingredients together.

 Form dough in different shapes or figures.

 Bake them in the preheated oven until dry and hard about 2 hours.

 Colour the figures by gouache.

Pre-school students made fascinating ice paintings. They put different nature materials in different trays, poured watr over their oranments and left them outside to freeze.

As all of the studying process was still happening online, students were offered a chance to decorate their homes to celebrate the beginning of spring. Fifth-graders had a spring and Easter decorations online workshop. They decorated their flats, houses and gardens.

The second grade students had an online origami workshop. They created Easter bunnies and chickens.

Easter is the important celebration in our country. Despite the pandemic, our students enthusiastically prepared traditional Easter foods at home. They baked Easter cakes and biscuits, coloured eggs and decorated the tables.
