Artworks
It was a pleasant surprise to arrive at a class of very enthusiastic pupils, raring to produce their ideas with me at the school.
I was really impressed with the amount of thought and ingenuity that was the result of inspiration acquired during our first day.
Some pupils had been inspired by performance and had choreographed a fabulous response to Paul Grangon’s work on the sail bridge. The pupils had conjured up instruments from recycled materials and were using their school surroundings to recreate their performance – very well implemented.
Another group had made boats from recycled shoes taking this concept a step further by introducing a fan motor and sailing it in a puddle in the playground.
The last group drew on the window of the classroom whilst the children played outside as a response to Neville Gabie. ‘Window Art’ – Click here to watch the film
It was a great day and was very impressive to see how the children embraced the experience. This truly shows that there is a place for the Locws Schools prgramme in the primary sector.
