  • KS3 Art Club - Sculpture

    Published 18/10/23

    In Key Stage 3 Art Club, we have spent the first term looking at sculpture. Students have had the opportunity to explore a variety of materials; this has included making snails from clay, mod-roc figures and paper sculpture inspired by the artist Charles McGee. The students have produced some fantastic results. Next term the art club will be exploring printmaking.

  • Christmas Card Project

    Published 18/10/23

    Students across Key stage 3 have been busy getting into the Christmas spirit by designing their own Christmas card for a project supported by CCS friends. We have seen a fantastic range of designs across the three year groups!

    Sales from these cards will raise additional funds for the school. I think you will agree that the below images demonstrate fantastic creativity from our young artists.

    In response to the theme of pattern and Charles McGee’s incredible sculptures, assemblages and paintings, the KS3 Art Club created patterns on an A4 sheet of paper and then reassembled them as these eyecatching paper sculptures (pictured above).

    Each week the art club creates something new to engage the students, they have recently had the opportunity to work with clay and soon they will be using modrock to fashion little figurative sculptures. KS3 Art Club is after school on Tuesdays in E1.
