 Over the past few days, year 5 have created some amazing pieces of art for the Courageous Advocacy Project. First, we created our own self-portraits using a class colour and a range of artistic materials. Next, we were given a feather to paint and we wrote something that we were grateful for on the back. These feathers will be part of a whole school art piece which is going to look brilliant. After that, we drew around our own shoes and designed these with things that were important to us. These turned out really well and very colourful too! Finally, we designed our own hot air balloons and then we used Hama beads to bring our plans to life. We can not wait to see them up on display around the school.
