PERFORMING ARTS

During our exciting Performing Arts lessons this Term, we have recently been participating in dance, specifically hip hop. We have been learning about different types of hip hop moves, for example side stepping. We have also been making our own choreography steps in groups then performing them, which has supported our confidence. It has allowed us to work in teams, support each other and have fun!

VISUAL ARTS 

 Our students have been busily preparing for the upcoming Art Show! Throughout this term, they have explored diverse techniques, starting with Pointillism, the art of blending pure colour dots. This technique introduced students to Colour Theory and optical mixing, showing them how the eye perceives adjacent colours. Students also studied Piet Mondrian, exploring radical simplicity through straight lines, geometric shapes, and primary colours. Using mediums like water-based markers, collage, and oil pastels, every grade has created incredible work.

The Visual Arts Show 2026 was a great success. Many families visited and enjoyed looking at the creative work by students and teachers.
