The Pom-pom Owls join Sheep at Armley Mills

All three animals in our pom-pom family can be seen together at Armley Mills, Leeds this summer.

They are in the Spinning Room, a magnificent area which shows the animals off in perfect surroundings:- amongst  bobbins, shuttles and spools of wool.

It is just so right that they should all go back to where the pom-pom project started back in 2012.

I am delighted they can be seen by lots of visitors to the museum and hopefully they will raise a smile from all ages.

They are on display until October so if you get chance to visit the museum this summer, you will see them.

Printmaking Workshop - Key Stage1 pupils invite family and friends into school.

To celebrate all the lovely printmaking we had done over the last three weeks in class KS1 invited their friends and family into school to try their hand at printmaking themselves.

The hall soon was filled with people eager to have a go and our children were experts at teaching them what to do.

Printing with jelly was very popular…

As were other types of printing…

The children took home their portfolios of prints which they had been putting together over the past three weeks during the topic in The Rainforest.

They had experienced repeating patterns, monoprinting, jelly printing, block printing all of which can be seen on the Art and Creativity blog http://artandcreativityrobinhood.blogspot.co.uk
