On Thursday 28th and Friday 29th June we held an art exhition. The exhibition displayed work created by all year groups linked to our ‘Beautiful and Useful’ sculpture topic from the summer term. There was some amazing 3D and 2D work to see, as well as numerous photos of the children enjoying the creative process of planning and designing their work.
The event was curated by artist Sara Heywood, who has worked in the school on numerous art workshops throughout the term. Work on display was linked to the various artists we have studied this term: Andy Goldsworthy, Alexander Calder, Barbara Hepworth, Alberto Giacometti, Michelle Reader and Amish Kapoor.
Parents and children were invited to visit the exhibition and children also got an opportunity to visit with their class teachers throughout the day.
