Exhibition of Art from East Wickham at The Berwick Rd Gallery

There was a fantastic turn-out of children, parents and staff to the opening of the East Wickham year 1 and year 5 exhibition on Wednesday. Everyone was greatly impressed by all the amazing work the children had produced - it looked fabulous!



Year 1 charcoal bears
Year 5 texture and print 'Iron Woman' collages


Year 1 fabric and print collages



Year 5 cardboard buildings

Year 1 magical birds


Year 5 cardboard sculptures



All year 1 and year 5 classes visited the gallery during school time to take part in some activities:

Year 1 were inspired by Henri Matisse's cut-outs and Patrick Heron's paintings. They made their own cut-outs and added them to the display in the gallery.  















The most colourful pile of rubbish!

Year 5 were looking closely at the artwork in the gallery and learning about making connections and curating a space
