Y2 and Y4 were invited to submit artwork to the Northwich Town Art Exhibition, on display in Barons Quay, on the theme of ‘pride’. Our work reflects the children’s pride in supporting one another in their learning journey and their pride in embodying the school’s values. L=Y2 and R=Y4.

Classes across the school created a timeline to represent the historic periods studied in our exciting History Curriculum. A range of media, 3-D structures and various embellishments have made the large scale canvases an impressive feature in the UKS2 corridor. We added a QR code to each image so that over time, children can add their learning about each era to a Padlet, so that the artwork is not only beautiful but it helps to develop a senses of chronology and is a useful resource for learners.

Year two created observational drawings of what can be found at local beauty spot, Neumann’s Flashes. These were assembled onto a hinged canvas to create a 3d leaflet to encourage visitors to Northwich to venture further out of the town. This work is on display in the pop up gallery, in Barons’ Quay.

# data[].attributes.body
Children in Y4 were inspired by 1920/1930s railway posters to create a canvas to encourage visitors to go to Neumann’s Flashes. Once part of the town’s industrial past, it is now a nature reserve. The children applied watercolour pencils and water soluble pens to an ink wash, then added pastel to add depth. This piece is on display in the pop up gallery, in Barons’ Quay.

We were impressed that, in today’s assembly, several children could identify the artist who painted this very famous picture. We enjoyed learning more about the artist and how he was a polymath - someone who was interested and skilled in many areas of study.

# data[].attributes.body
Children in Year 2 & Year 4 collaborate each year to produce a large scale piece of art that is displayed as part of the Northwich Art Trail.  This exhibition features work produced by children in Years 2 & 4 from primary schools across Northwich, and is located in Baron’s Quay, opposite Wildwood.

At Wincham we care deeply for our Earth and everything in it. The 17 Global Goals are very important to our school community and they are woven throughout our curriculum.

Squirrels and Grasshoppers have chosen to base their piece on the Global Goals linked to the environment, specifically 'Responsible Consumption and Production', 'Life Below Water' and 'Life on Land'.

The children all created different pictures of rubbish using a variety of media and then they attached the artwork to a bin. Through the piece we are demonstrating the importance of recycling, ensuring that waste is kept under control and all life, on land and below water, can be protected.

Children in Year 4 have followed a similar environmental theme, and have created a turtle using plastic milk bottle tops, showing how environmental issues can impact on such creatures.

We drew pictures of the lion from The Lion Inside. It's good to read a book and then draw things. We used shading. When you shade you press harder and harder to make it get darker.  You have to go really slowly so you don't scribble.
