Arts Week 2024

Arts week was during the last week of term our theme was different arts around the world.  In Year 5 we were learning about India, we were colouring in elephants in Pointillism (which is dots used to make an image). We used colour pens.  All the other classes looked at other countries around the world including Jamaica, Finland and Australia. As well as the elephants we performed some Indian Bollywood dancing.  Year 2 did a dance to the Moomin song using ribbons, which floated in the air.  Some children brought in items of clothing from different countries to show the classes.  We really enjoyed arts week, we had never seen some of the patterns on the clothing before which is very different from ours.

In Year 3 we were finding out about art in Australia.  We made dot paintings, I made a rectangle and I made a tulip and we played the digeridoo!  When you blow it,, it feels like your brain is shaking!  It was quite difficult and made a low vibrating sound which I could feel through my body.  We also made Fairy Bread which Australian’s have as a snack.  It is like normal bread with butter and hundreds and thousands on.  We had lots of fun.

In Year 1 we were looking at art in Scotland.  We learnt a Scottish song called ‘I will walk 500 miles’.  We loved singing it and it made us smile.  We painted the Loch Ness Lake using blue and green. I loved the singing and I liked the painting.
