THE ART ROOM
It was wonderful to welcome the children back into the art room in the Summer Term and we took no time to get out the clay and acrylic paint!

After sitting patiently in the cupboard for four months, the Year 2 dragons could finally have a coat of vibrant colour based on themes such as fire, space, and nature. The Year 1 classes soon followed making sea creatures and trying glazes for the first time. Reception classes built ambitious junk model rockets and covered them in papier-mâché. We celebrated some wonderful dinosaur drawings completed in the lockdown by Year 3 and Year 4 learnt about accurate proportions of the figure before completing their Egyptian god foil pictures. Inspired by local artist Helen Stanfield, the Year 5 pupils drew patterned river animals and experimented with printing inks and texture on their colourful backgrounds. Year 6 learnt about the difficult technique of one-point perspective to show depth. Their final painting shows an Anderson Shelter from World War 2.
The Year 4 and Year 6 art clubs have been particularly creative, using vibrant colour on fabric paintings and trying out drawing inks with pens and wash. Pop art also inspired our fabulous cake pictures. We have completed two very successful art competitions this year including a new design for the homework diaries and a drawing to celebrate the heroes of the pandemic for the Royal Mail.
It is always a pleasure to see such wonderful talent and excitement for the subject and we are extremely proud of the outstanding results the children produce.

ART CLUB
Year 3 were excited when they heard our after school art club was allowed to open up.
We spent the Summer Term completing several pieces of stunning work based on our topic in class and the lovely spring weather outside.
Our topic was on Africa and we had great fun deciding on what animals we would see under a tree at sunset on the African plains. We saw flowers sprouting in the spring sunshine and the petals bloom into colour. We looked closely at the shapes and sizes of the petals. Before long the hot air balloons were back up in the sky and floating over Kingswood prep school a sight we always love to see!
I am sure you will agree the results were fantastic and everyone was so proud of what they had achieved.
