My passion/ personal experience with Art
I ADORE Art. Growing up I didn’t have an easy childhood… Art has always been a positive outlet for me when I was growing. I believe ‘no matter the child’, their strengths, areas for growth or background every child is an artist! Art is a great to way express yourself when it isn’t always easy to do so. Here’s some of the pieces of Artwork I have created in my own time
Experiences in Our School
In our school we enjoy combining our passion for art, with developing our skills and knowledge within the subject. We take part in Art learning every term, which includes a final piece of art at the end of each topic, that can be seen on our whole school displays. In EYFS the children take part in Art daily throughout continuous provision and teacher led activities, and from y1-y6 the children each have their very own sketchbook that is unique and personal to them. We also enjoy taking part in Art throughout other areas of our school curriculum… such as science and Literacy. Have a look at the school website to see some pictures of our Whole School Art Gallery that took place in Summer 2021, were the children each created a piece of expressive Art, to take part in our whole school ‘Cracking Creator’ competition
Hopes and Goals in Art
From our pupil voice questionnaires, the children were very keen for artists to visit the school this year, therefore, Miss Wright has organised an artist to come in and work with the children to create some Digital Artwork; combining our skills and knowledge in Art and Computing. Our staff are also looking forward to continuing developing their own skills and knowledge in Art through staff CPD and training. We are hoping that our children continue to make good progress in Art and Design, and further improve their sketchbook skills and annotations. I am really looking forward to another year of fantastic Artwork, skills, knowledge and enjoyment for all our children at St. Mary and St. John
