Year 2’s Wonderful trip to Nature in Arts

What a fantastic day Year 2 had on our trip to Nature in Art! We enjoyed three exciting activities that really brought out the artist in all of us.

First, we got stuck into printmaking with poly block, where each child chose their favourite minibeast to design and print in two vibrant colours – the results were amazing! Next up was making a clay sculpture. Using air-drying clay, we sculpted our own minibeast creations. The children learnt how to use different tools, add textures, and carefully join pieces together .

Our final activity was a museum exploration, where we took a close look at the amazing art and sculpture collection, and even had the chance to meet the brilliant artist Natalie Toplass, who inspired us with her beautiful work.

A huge thank you to all our brilliant parent helpers – we couldn’t have done it without you!
