We were thrilled to welcome children’s illustrator Emily Fellah to visit our Year 1 and Year 2 classes! Emily led an exciting workshop focused on storytelling through illustration. Year 2 pupils used their model text The Storm Whale as inspiration to design their own imaginative characters, while Year 1 brought the classic tale of The Three Little Bears to life through their drawings. It was a creative and inspiring afternoon for all, sparking a love of storytelling and art!

As part of our collaboration with the Turner Contemporary, our year 6s and year 1s completed a workshop with artist, Jose. The children explored different brush strokes and explored how secondary and tertiary colours can be made using the primary colours. They also explored some of Jose's art work, thinking about what equipment he had used and what they could see. Following the workshop, the children explored Anna Boghiguian's exhibition called 'The Sunken Boat'. It was a fabulous day. We look forward to February when Jose will come and visit us to develop their paintings further.
