That's why we offer a broad range of art and design technology classes to all pupils from Nursery to Year 8. By encouraging our pupils to express themselves creatively, we help them build their skills in problem solving, critical thinking and visual literacy.
Whether children have an interest in painting, printmaking, pottery, sculpting, or working on graphic design and technology projects, we provide abundant opportunities for them to develop a lifelong appreciation of the creative arts.
Art
Art is taught in our purpose-built, light and airy Art & Design Centre, with an incredible gallery to showcase our pupils superb work and its own relaxing garden space for outdoor artwork. The Art department is a truly creative environment for all our pupils. There is a kiln and a wheel available for pottery, a number of sewing machines available for textiles and state-of-the-art cameras available for photography.
Design and Technology
Design and Technology is taught in a spacious and well-equipped workshop. Pupils discover the different stages of the design process and the various tools, materials and techniques to turn their dreams and ideas into reality. Pupils work with plastics, metals and wood throughout the year groups.
