Our talented Year 2 Art Club children have been working incredibly hard on a special upcycling project, transforming our school boat into a beautiful memorial garden.
Working together as a fantastic team, the children painted the boat before creating beautiful flowers from recycled materials. Using the bottoms of plastic bottles for the petals and plastic egg cartons for the centres, they painted each flower with vibrant acrylic paints and carefully added fine details. Their colourful creations now form a lasting feature of the memorial garden, bringing beauty and meaning to this special space.
The children also developed their fine motor skills by making paper finger snakes and colourful lizard keyrings using pony beads.
We are incredibly proud of their creativity, teamwork, and care throughout this project. They have created something that the whole school community can appreciate for years to come.

What a fantastic term we've had in Year 1 Art Club! The children have been busy exploring a range of exciting art and craft activities, showing wonderful creativity and enthusiasm throughout.
Using clay, they carefully sculpted their very own Pout-Pout Fish before bringing them to life with colourful acrylic paints, just in time for the film release in August.
They had great fun making spiders using pipe cleaners and pom-poms, creating some wonderfully imaginative designs.
One of the highlights of the term was designing their own tie-dye T-shirts. The children were excited to experiment with a choice of two different tie-dye techniques, with each T-shirt turning out completely unique!
We also upcycled acoustic wall panels into beautiful photo frames, decorating them with shells, sea glass and pasta to create seaside-inspired masterpieces.
To finish the term on a sweet note, the children decorated their own seaside-themed cookies, combining creativity with a tasty treat!
We are so proud of everything the children have created this term. Their imagination, confidence and artistic skills have flourished, and it's been wonderful to see them so engaged in every activity. Well done, Year 1! ๐
