Congratulations Dane!

A huge congratulations to Dane McKenna who won the Art and Hobby Shop's Easter competition!

Each boy in the school was given a foam Easter egg to decorate. Dane chose to make his into a minion. His creative design was chosen not only as the best in the school but in the whole competition. 

It's currently on display in the Art and Hobby Shop in the Jervis Shopping Centre.

A big thanks to Ms Murphy for organising the completion entries  for us. 

Claude Monet

About a fortnight ago, our class was learning about the artist Claude Monet in the classroom. We were learning about him as an art lesson. We tried to copy a painting of his called 'The Japanese Bridge'. The painting was painted with painted with water colours. He was an Impressionist artist and was around in the late 1800's. Claude Monet joined the army when he was 21 and he went to Africa with them. His aunt begged him to leave the army and paid for him to go to art college if he gave it up. The Japenese Bridge is a colourful painting, full of flowers. I really enjoyed learning about it.

Working with clay

By Darrell

By Josh

When we were using clay we decided to make clay people and clay monsters. It was great fun. I made a clay footballer. Jordan made a clay monster .Nathan made a football boot. Darrell made a footballer. Josh made a Larriers crest.
Everyone had fun making clay things out of clay but there was clay everywhere. It was on the floor and on the doors! You could make anything out of it. After we had made it and it dries, Breda paints it with you. We brought them home after a couple of days when they had dried.

Drawing our characters

Magno by Leon Bannerman

Batman by Jordan Doody

The Crazy Clown by Killian D'Arcy

To draw our characters we talked about the different characters and heroes that appear in the stories we read and the films we watch. We talked about waht we liked best in each character and used this to design and create our own characters for our english lessons and our art.

We recently created different versions of Van Gogh's 'Starry Night'. We used different art materials each week. We used paint, pencil and soft chalk pastels. The versions of 'Starry Night' above were created with these different art materials.
