Inspired by Hockney

David Hockney is one of the most influential British artists of the 20th century and an important contributor to the 1960s’ Pop Art movement. He’s now creating paintings on his iPad.

Hockney has emailed 300 iPad drawings to an exhibition in Paris.
The iPad is has become a new tool for the artist, mainly in that it allows him to paint at any time of the day and employ the full spectrum of the colour wheel.

 

Inspired by David Hockney's ipad paintings, Year 4 used their iPads to think about setting in Literacy when they studied 'The Green Ship'.

 



Music Hall Stories

 

Coral Class are working with Skidaddle Animation to write and make their own animated film! They are using objects that could have come from an old Victorian music hall to inspire their own stories. Follow the progress of the project on their special blog. Links below and in the panel to the right.

Pandora's Box

As part of their Literacy topic about understanding myths and legends, Year 3 have  each made their own Pandora's Box.

They thought about what it would be like to open the box and in groups made tableaux of Pandora opening the box.
