Art
Art at St. Margaret’s is a vital part of the curriculum. Lessons are integrated into termly topics to inspire and excite the children. It is obvious to see how much the children enjoy the subject as the results speak for themselves! Our learning environment is full of life and colour, from murals to the children’s work, celebrating art in all its forms.
The children at St. Margaret's are provided with a chance to express themselves in a variety of different media from clay to collage, painting to pencil. Their skills are developed as they progress through the school as they are given the opportunity to explore their expressive side as we integrate Art into many areas as part of a cross-curricular curriculum.
Here are a few places to explore Art in all its different forms!

Term 2 and Year 5 created amazing space paintings of futuristic rockets. We worked BIG using A2 paper; this was very enjoyable!
Term 1 and Year 5 have been busy creating Greek pots and plates using traditional colours and using clay as our medium.
We have added intricate designs using black marker pens.
