Article 29- Children’s education should develop their personalities, talents and abilities.

Year 1 have been exploring the work of environmental artist Richard Shilling. Inspired by his use of natural materials, the children created their own pieces of artwork using leaves, sticks, stones and other materials found outdoors.

The children enjoyed being creative while exploring colour, shape, texture and pattern in the natural environment.
