Year 2 had a fantastic day at The Hepworth Gallery in Wakefield. The children loved exploring the gallery spaces and studying the incredible sculptures on display. They spent time discussing line, texture and colour and were fascinated to see some of the real-life objects that inspired Barbara Hepworth’s artwork.
In the afternoon, the class took part in an amazing printing workshop. Using a range of different textures, they created their own unique prints and the outcomes were incredible. There are definitely a few pieces worthy of a frame.
We were especially proud of how respectful and responsible the children were throughout the day. Their behaviour set a wonderful example of our school and they represented us brilliantly.
We’re excited to explore printing even further as part of our art topic this term.
