Environmental art at Thornham














Environmental art is a popular course for both Key Stage 1 and Key Stage 2 pupils.

A group of KS1 children made miniature gardens this week.

They had good fun collecting natural things in Red Wood and working as a team to design their gardens.


The children are encouraged to look for patterns and symmertry in nature, to look at colours and the variations in shades. They may collect materials on sticky cards, or enjoy a session mud painting. They may make banners or leaf rubbings or decorate trees with chalk. There are several artistic activies to choose from.
