Art at Holne Chase provides children with the opportunity to explore their inner artist in a creative, innovative, and challenging way. Our progressive and engaging curriculum aims to nurture creative thinking to enable all children to become confident learners as they experiment with a range of medium in fun and stimulating lessons.
Art is taught and built upon year-on-year with each year group able to practice and develop their skills, which allows children to build resilience by learning and enables them to foster their artistic flare. Children study a variety of influential historical and contemporary artists from a range of cultural backgrounds to help inspire and encourage them to explore and celebrate their values within their own works of art.
Our progressive art curriculum focuses on the development of the key skills required to develop as an artist. These are:
Children are also encouraged to explore their ideas creatively and record their experiences using sketchbooks. Sketchbooks are a place where children make personal, expressive records and are free to explore visual language in a way that interests them.
Through the rich experiences provided at Holne Chase, we believe that the skills our children gain within Art, gives them the confidence to produce creative high-quality works of art with their own artistic flare and style.
