Aims of the Art and Design curriculum at St Laurence's

At St Laurence’s, we aim for our children to explore a range of artists and genres and express themselves confidently through a wide variety of art and design projects. By the time children leave this school, we aim for our children to:

• Produce a range of creative art
• Develop skills in drawing, painting, collage, printing, and 3D art/ sculpture
• Appreciate the work of great artists from across history and the world and local, contemporary artists.

'Art Week '

Our theme for this year was Self-Portraits. Each year group studied an artist know for this genre of art. They observed the style and techniques used and then tried to create their own self-portait in the style of their chosen artist.

Previous 'Art Week' 

Our theme for Art Week this year was Illustration and all year groups were inspired by a different illustrator. They studied the work of this person and then tried to create work in the style of their chosen artist.
