Mural Design Workshop

On the 7th of July, year 4 children were given the opportunity to visit the Royal West of England Academy for an art workshop. This was organised by Michele Curtis, a local artist who explores black British culture. During the day, we explored the art gallery and discussed which pieces of artwork were our favourite giving reasons why. Each child produced their own canvas which will be incorporated into a final mural design, exhibited at the #Artival2018 exhibition to celebrate the 50th Aniversary of the 1968 St Pauls festival. Take a look at our day below.

Red Lodge trip

On Monday the 4th of July we visited the Red Lodge for a Portrait workshop. The children got the oportunity to look around the red lodge, learn about the history and try on some Tudor clothing. We ended the session sketching a portrait of Lady Joan Young. After the Red Lodge we were all very hungry and ate our lunch on College Green. We also enjoyed the scones we had made in the morning with Miss Manka for DT week.
