Art
“I found I could say things with colour and shapes that I couldn’t say any other way - things I had no words for.” — Georgia O’Keeffe (1887-1986), Artist
My name is Mrs Cummings and I'm the Art subject lead at Waberthwaite C of E School.
I was very lucky to grow up surrounded by a family of artists and their passion for everything creative resonates with me through life to this day.
Art is a subject I love to teach and I particularly enjoy seeing the moment that every child realises that they too are an artist!
Art Intent, Implementation and Impact.docxHere at Waberthwaite we use the Kapow scheme for the teaching and learning of Art and Design. We adapt the units to suit our children and ensure that there is a full, progressive coverage of the National Curriculum to allow our pupils to flourish in creativity.

Class 3 Craft and Design - The Fabric of Nature
Class 3 have been following in the footsteps of craftspeople such as William Morris, Senaka Seyanake and Megan Carter; taking their inspiration from the natural world and creating patterns for fabric design using a glue batik process.
"I'm so proud of myself - this looks like a real artist did it."

Class 3 - Craft and Design - Architecture
Class 3 have been working hard on exploring architecture and the work of LS Lowry, Zaha Hadid and Friedensreich Hundertwasser.
We enjoyed exploring new processes and materials and explore and develop our ideas in new ways.
