We have been lucky enough to be visited by a local artist. We had studied the art work of Stuart Roper and were put in contact with him through the art gallery in Knighton.
He came in to talk us through the process of using acrylic paints to create landscape scenes on canvas. We were all fascinated by his approach and are excited to try this medium and process ourselves. So many questions were asked.
Cnoc-y-coed worked very hard to create a wonderful banner to be used in church the celebrate the King’s coronation.
We made Easter cards and went on a stamp hunt to win a mini chocolate egg and marshmallows.
Well done to everyone who entered and to Fletcher for winning.
We spent a fantastic afternoon learning all sorts of skills with Peter.
We learnt a lot about sustainability and how to look after our animals.
In maths we made shields using our knowledge of symmetry.
We learnt how to sort different materials out which included: glitter, rice, pasta, gems, buttons, hundreds and thousands, marbles, paperclips and bells. We used sieving, magnets, and scoops.
We investigated invisible ink and then used the best to make maps.
We investigated how absorbent different materials were to soak up water from an oasis.
We learnt how to melt ice the quickest without force to retrieve our gems.
Everyone really enjoyed this quest!
We created daffodil collages and worked on our cutting skills.
