Art Club Week 1

12th May 2022

This week we started an after school Art Club.

Ms.Sheridan & Ms.Deering took part in an Erasmus course and learned how to use works of Art in the classroom and beyond. They were excited about sharing their new knowledge and methodologies with interested pupils for an after school art club.

There were a huge number of interested pupils who signed up so we decided to have an Art Club for 3rd and 4th classes in May and 5th and 6th classes in June. 

The first week was lots of fun exploring colour using oil pastels and working collaboratively. We drew and coloured pictures, patterns and shapes on a long white roll of paper which covered lots of tables in the hall. We then moved places to add onto other drawings or fill up the white sheet.

We selected what pictures we liked, cut them up and placed them into a collage on black paper. This was an interesting activity as we walked around the piece to see different perspectives and also a different collage. We discussed how it made us feel doing this activity, what we enjoyed and any words that came to our minds to name the final piece.

Looking forward to week two!
