On Tuesday we had our Junior School ARCH launch and invited The Palmer Academy to join us in a fun art afternoon in Abbey Gardens!
14 Year 1 students from The Palmer Academy joined our Lower prep pupils to collaborate on large art works with the theme of ‘community’. Each group drew around one of their peers and then decorated their outlines creating unique and colourful children! It was a windy afternoon and all the children had to problem solve ways of keeping our art from flying away, we shared resources and developed our teamwork skills.
It was a fun, sunny afternoon full of laughter and joy. Our Lower prep students made lots of new friends and it was fantastic to see our community growing! We hope you enjoy the pictures of our artwork and teamwork.
We look forward to having The Palmer Academy students back with us on Friday for shared reading in the library with our UI students.
