Our students made colourful leaf paintings this week in art class. These mixed media pieces were inspired by the beautiful fall colours all around us 🍁

Our October schedule has been posted on our website www.petitpicasso.ca

Please note, our Saturday, October 14th class will be moved to Sunday, October 15th.

In honour of the National Day for Truth and Reconciliation on September 30th, our students made dream catchers and drawings inspired by the Haida people in Canada.

Dream Catchers are an important part of Indigenous Culture and Identity, originating with the Ojibwes.

Haida art focuses on simplicity, line, unity and balance. The two-dimensional paintings are usually black and red or sometimes include blue and green.
