Arts Award

Our three Arts Award groups are hard at work again this term! Our Silver level group, Indigo class, are working towards Unit 1 Part D, which involves researching artists, arts organisations, training opportunities and career progression. Cyan class are also researching artists who inspire them for Part C of the Bronze level award.

Sapphire class are working on Part B of the Bronze award, for which they will be experiencing various art events including exhibitions and workshops- this week we visited the Tate Modern and National Gallery in London and the Van Gogh Museum in Amsterdam, all through the magic of virtual reality!

Silver Arts Award

Indigo class visited Stamford Arts Centre this week for a sneaky private view of the Welland Valley Arts Society’s exhibition! It was great to have the opportunity to see the fantastic range of work on display. We’ll be writing a review of the exhibition as part of our Arts Award work.

Cyan Class

Our Explore Arts Award group have started working on Part C of the award, which involves completing a personal project to show off their creativity. Last week was spent planning and preparing for the project. We have a mixture of painting, toymaking and knitting on the go! The project will run over the course of two weeks, after which the students will be presenting their work to the group.

 

Indigo Class

Indigo class have started their Silver awards- a big undertaking! Silver level is the equivalent of a higher grade GCSE and will take us a whole school year to complete. This term we’re working towards Part 1A, which involves planning and preparing for an in depth project chosen by the students. So far we’ve been organising the way in which we will be recording our progress and reflecting on our creative strengths and weaknesses. We discussed possible projects and looked at some examples of anthologies as a possible route to take.
