At HCFS we aim to deliver a high quality art and design curriculum which engages, inspires and challenges all pupils, equipping them with the knowledge and skills to experiment, invent and create their own works of art, craft and design. Children are encouraged to think critically to develop a rigorous understanding of the subject as well as an understanding of how design has shaped our history and contributed to the culture, creativity and wealth of our nation. Children will be proud of their art work and will be able to discuss and critic works of art that they are exposed to. Art work is evidenced through cross curricular links.

We are very proud of our art work!

Art Week June 2024

Across the school, children have taken part in art week where they produced some amazing art work to be proud of.

Session 1 - the dot activity.

All children were given a dot and were read the story of The Dot written by Peter H Reynolds.  They were tasked with creating a picture from a single dot.

Session 2 - Tree of Life

The tree of life represents many things in different religions, faiths and mythologies, where they can symbolise family, immortality, peace and other scared meanings.  Each year group designed their own tree of life using different art mediums.

Session 3 - Artists.

Each year group were given an artist to explore and recreate a piece of art in the style of that artist.

There are some photos showcasing just a small proportion of the work produced.
