Y10 did a great job creating these.

Reykjavik. Looking down. Later tonight will be looking up. Good to be 'home' ❤️

Beautiful winter light yesterday #Iceland

Y9. Great use of a snow covered day to make some art from home.

Another crop of our Y8 clay characters 'Clayliens' has hatched!

Relieved. Today I accidentally flung my wedding ring across the school field at great speed when I feeding the gulls rather too forcefully. Some Y10s came to help me search, slightly bemused at my silliness. Thankfully one of them found it. I could never have spotted it alone.

Some lovely first pieces by one of our Y7 students Saint Pius X

Such a hard watch. What vile bullying . The bigger boys with the shiny toys in the playground gang up on the underdog. Do as I say or we will make it very difficult for you. (and say 'thank you sir'). Vile.

Teachers: The remarkable performance by Owen Cooper in ‘Adolescence’ would not have been possible if Drama had not been on the curriculum. The sidelining of creative arts’ subjects is of great concern - theatre, drama, performing arts, art, film are essential to our culture.

This.

Did my first rug tufting workshop today. Great fun. Loved using the tufting gun. Tricky on a small scale though as only 20 x 20cm.

Very proud of our Y11 artists who have worked so hard on their 10 hour controlled pieces this week. Some great outcomes. Can't publish them unfortunately due to JCQ regs.

6 1/2 weeks

Some fabulous leaf drawings from our Y10 students. Sometimes simple is best. Pencil, paper, subject.

Students loved designing and making these recently.

This is a current PopArt portrait by one of our Y9 boys. He chose the subject. He is so proud of it as he believes he is no good at anything in school. A real turning point for him and his confidence . He worked so hard on it.

Today was my last day of my teaching career. My 34th year in education. Taking early retirement as it is time for me to find out who I am beyond the classroom. It's been an emotional day. I am fortunate to have wonderful colleagues and students so excitement and sadness combined.
