Art

“I loved making the tiger out of clay and then painting it." Daniel, Year 3

Art is taught by subject specialists throughout the school from our Little Acorns and Reception to Year 8. The purpose-built Art room offers a wide range of activities, including painting, sculpture, ceramics and printing. Our art curriculum is designed to foster creativity, nurture the pupils’ imaginations and encourage self-expression.

Pupils at Solefield experience the joy of making art, whilst developing a range of skills and learning to communicate their ideas through a wide variety of art forms. A highlight of the year is our whole school Art Exhibition, where every child in the school displays some of their work to be admired.

Art at Solefield is fun, but we also have very high standards and this is reflected in the large number of art scholarships gained in recent years. Learning is further enhanced by visiting artists, gallery trips and the art clubs on offer.
