ART AND POTTERY

Art is a popular subject which is taught to all pupils within the school.  Pupils are encouraged to develop their skills in painting, drawing, collage, ceramics, construction, print, surface pattern and design through fun and inspiring lessons.  Pupils will learn to develop their imaginations, engage in individual and group work and to handle materials and techniques with confidence.  Great importance will be placed on improving creativity, observational skills and critical awareness of the work of artists and designers.  Pupils will be taught the correct disciplines and procedures within an Art Studio, to become self reliant and able to express themselves through their work.

Robert Bruce has two Art Rooms with scenic views of the River Ouse and surrounding countryside, a source of great inspiration throughout the year.  The department is well equipped and has a kiln, has been fitted with computers with internet access, a TV, video and DVD player as well as new Interactive Whiteboards.
