Hammer Process Art

The Upper School were given a hammer process art task recently to try out. This is where you collect some fallen flower heads and leaves and put them between two pieces of paper. You then use a hammer to gently tap the top piece of paper to squash the flowers and leaves. A colour print is left on the paper when you gently lift it off. I decided to give it a go myself with the fallen flowers in my garden. Here are my results.

National Gallery of Scotland

For any of you interested in Art, Mrs Stephenson found this link to fun family activities from the National Gallery of Scotland. I still have your competition entries which I can submit when lockdown lifts. They have now opened the competition to families too so perhaps you could submit a family entry. Copy and paste the link into your address bar to get access to some lovely activities.

Primary 7 got creative again !!

A few weeks ago Primary 7 watched a film showing frogspawn in Bellsquarry pond. The frogspawn has now turned into hundreds of little tadpoles. Soon they will turn into frogs. P7 had a technology challenge to make a frog using any resources available. They are very inventive!!
