Year 2 and 3 visited the Southampton City Art Gallery last week.
The day started with a print workshop run by an expert art educator in the Gallery studio. The pupils experimented with shape, form and colour, resulting in many beautiful and unique prints.
After our packed lunch we set off to the Main Gallery to view a wonderful selection of paintings and drawings. The children spoke with confidence about their responses to each one, developing their critical appraisal skills while viewing artwork that will inform their future creations.
After a brief visit to the Gallery shop we set off home, full of inspiration for the Art lessons to come.
