Mr Dunn’s Class Update T1 W14

This week, our Christmas art project grew even more exciting as the students continued working in small groups to develop their large-scale holiday pieces. Unlike last week’s initial sketching and base-painting sessions, this week was all about adding details, refining colours, and bringing each artwork’s personality to life.

Students experimented with bold colour blocks, textured brushstrokes, and layering techniques to make their Christmas characters and scenes stand out. Some groups focused on polishing facial expressions and clothing patterns, while others added highlights, shadows, and decorative elements to deepen the festive atmosphere.

It was wonderful to see how much more confident and collaborative the students have become.
They discussed ideas, made decisions together, and even helped one another with tricky painting sections—showing real teamwork and artistic maturity.

Our art room is now filled with bright reds, warm golds, and cheerful winter motifs.
Every corner feels like Christmas is already here!

We can’t wait to display the finished pieces next week and celebrate the students’ hard work and creativity.

Wishing everyone a joyful and cosy weekend!
