Miss Maguire, Miss Mayer and Mrs Duck had the great privilege of taking a small group of our Year 4 pupils to London to celebrate some of the work they had created over the summer, working with professional artists.  The children spent the day at the Craftsman’s Guild with another group of children from a school in East London, looking at each other’s art outcomes and working together on a special creative project for the day, working together to design a ‘dream’ play space, creating floor plans, designs for logos and 3D models to represent one of the play features within their space.  The children were delightful company and excellent ambassadors for the school.

 

Unfortunately, the work the children produced is not available to be seen by the public - unless you happen to be a member of the Craftsman’s Guild - but we were incredibly impressed by the quality of work the children from both schools produced.  

 

We saw puppets, printing and jewellery produced by the children of St. Bede, stone carving, handmade books and paper mache models made by Sir John Heron Primary School pupils.  Well done to all of the children in Year 4 for the work they produced and especially to the eight children who came to London who engaged so maturely with the artists, the other children and each other.
