Art Day 2021

Everyone really enjoyed all of the activities and stations on this year’s Art Day. Children loved spending the whole day being creative and having fun immersed in arts and crafts & film making projects. A HUGE thank you to the incredible parents on the Art Committee & STEAM Committee who helped make this year’s reimagined Art Day as wonderful as ever!

Fifth Class worked on an incredible film making project for Art Day. With the support of their teacher and under the guidance of a very helpful and knowledgeable parent & film-maker, Killian Waters, pupils worked on their own reproduction of the film Shrek. This entailed groups creating a set, designing costumes, and recording their own scene from the movie. The class are spending a few days working on this exciting project. On completion, Killian will edit their recordings resulting in the class having their own reproduction of their imagined version of Shrek!
