As part of their current art curriculum, last week Year 6 spent an inspiring day at the National Gallery in London.
The boys were given an excellent talk on still life painting which will be explored in greater depth during their art lessons this term.
During the afternoon, the boys split up into small groups with their group leader and began to explore the amazing array of diverse pictures in the galleries. They spent time discussing and looking carefully at a select group of paintings and thoughtfully answered questions on their worksheets.
The boys had a wonderful time and are encouraged to revisit the gallery with their families to show them the collection of paintings, which is free to the public.
