Last half term was bursting with colour — literally! Our young artists dived into the amazing world of the colour wheel, learning how every shade we see around us is created. We explored primary colours, discovered secondary colours, and even mixed our way into gorgeous tertiary tones.
But learning colour theory wasn’t just about looking at charts — oh no. We rolled up our sleeves and got messy (in the best possible way!). Using paint, watercolours, and creative tools, the children experimented with mixing colours to create light tints, deep shades, and smooth gradients. It was so exciting to watch their faces light up when a new colour appeared right under their brushes!
Once we had our brilliant new colours, we put them to use in some super fun creative projects. The children designed beautiful patterns, striking abstract pieces, and carefully arranged colour sequences — each one showing off their unique ideas and imagination. The pictures below show just some of the incredible results!
Throughout the term, we saw confidence grow, friendships form, and creativity bloom. Every session brought giggles, teamwork, and those magical “look what I made!” moments. 🌟
We are incredibly proud of the effort, curiosity, and talent our young artists showed. If this half term was any hint of what’s to come… the future looks VERY colourful! 🌈✨
Thank you to all our amazing creators — we can’t wait for next term’s adventures in art!
