• Mark making in landscape art

  Tue 15 Nov 2022 Mrs Bullock

  We continue to develop our mark making skills in Snowdon class. We have used a view finder to help us focus our attention, then we have used different tools to create detailed recreations of artists work. I was really impressed with the vocabulary the children were feeling more comfortable using; line, tone, shade, texture, shape and form.

• Remembrance in Reception

  Fri 11 Nov 2022 Miss Blackwell

  Today we remembered the soldiers who fought and died in the line of duty. At 11 o’ clock the children watched this clip https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=jeR5JWaIcpo and joined in with 2 minutes silence with the rest of the school. We reflected on what we had observed from the clip and talked about how it made us feel. We discussed why we wear poppies and explained that the money we give helps soldiers and their families who still serve for our country. We all made a poppy using our finger prints in paint.
