Inspired artwork in Reception

Stone Age Experience – Year Three
The children had a fantastic day in the outdoors experiencing how Stone Age men and women lived. We dressed like them, made shelters like them, learnt about the animals and made tools. So much fun learning!
Year One’s Artwork
Year One have been continuing to learn about Henri Rousseau. They have drawn from observation – focussing on what they can actually see rather than what they think they can see! We will be creating background washes, animals and then foregrounds to help hide them as our final pieces! 🖼️
