In 2021, the Barbreck Art program operated in the wonderful Art Studio at School, as well as online during our Learn@Home program. As with last year, student artists were required to self-guide and self-evaluate their art practice whilst completing a task. These attributes can be difficult to maintain for any artist and especially for school children, who thrive on guidance and affirmation from peers and teachers. Despite the challenging learning environment, Barbreck artists were always enthusiastic and willing to try new techniques and provide support for one another. Collaborating with other teachers and subjects is always part of Barbreck Art. This year we chose the Wizard of Oz as the subject of one of our cross curricular projects. The whole Junior School was involved in the ‘Make Your Own Ruby Slipper’ competition and the Years 5 and 6 cohort created wonderful book art sculptures of a Wizard of Oz scene. Sharing artwork online was always refreshing, enabling students to see each other’s reactions to Toy Adventure short films and photos, alongside narrations. This was a really positive and highly entertaining experience. Art Club was adjusted to complement the online Art program. Friday lunchtimes, we met as a group to share any at home ‘arting’ and crafting. As well as the online Art Quiz which was always hotly contested by all. Resourcefulness and determination were skills that were tested and refined during Barbreck Art this year. All students should be proud of what they have achieved.
