Year 6 Step into the World of Van Gogh

Our Year 6 students have been journeying through significant eras of art history with Mrs Shannon. This week, they explored Post-Impressionism, taking a closer look at the iconic works of Vincent Van Gogh.

In a special session held in the Secondary School art rooms, students experienced what it’s like to paint like the master himself. They learned Van Gogh's brushstroke techniques and applied colour theory while mixing their own paints.

Inspired by Starry Night and Sunflowers, each student painted a piece of these masterpieces. Their individual contributions will soon come together as one stunning collaborative artwork - we can't wait to see the final result!
