Latest displays at Artforms, the West Park Centre, Leeds

On Friday Mrs. Mistry and myself set off to Artforms - The West Park centre, Headingley, Leeds to display some of our fabulous artwork created at Robin Hood.

As the meeting rooms there have such vast walls we are delighted to be able to display the "Year 5/6 Classroom Painting" that was painted by KS2 Artclub for the Year 6 summer production in 2011.

It could not be in a more appropriate place! 

In one of the meeting rooms we have displayed the set of 12 Easter paintings Years 3/4 designed and made for the Easter celebration Assembly.

Our huge thanks to West Park for letting us use this space.  As their meeting rooms are so big, we are able to display all these pieces together which allows the visual story to be told without a break.  It would not have the same impact if it was in two different locations.

This space is perfect for the "Ransom Art" which Year 5/6 produced after their visit to the Yorkshire Sculpture Park.

I hope many people enjoy looking at this art...

Artforms - The West Park Centre

ArtForms is the music and arts team within Children's Services at Leeds
City Council. It is based at the West Park Centre, on Spen Lane (near
Headingley), Leeds.

On a visit to Artforms, Mrs. Dale thought some of our artwork would
brighten up their walls!
Here it is…………..







At last we have been able to exhibit the three Reception Artclub 2011
paintings together!

This wall is six and a half metres long and is one of the meeting rooms up
there. The books “Why is the Sky Blue?” “Rumble in the Jungle”, and
“A-Z of Dinosaurs" were the visual inspiration behind the paintings.
Each pupil drew a picture about the story and the best bits from all the
drawings were used to design the finished pieces.
The masks were made by pupils in the Reception class as part of the Jungle topic.

In one of the other meeting rooms we have displayed “Animals on Ice”
This painting was created by the Key Stage 1 Artclub 2011. It is an imaginary
world of animals that live on ice – a combination of the North and South
Pole.

The children painted the background with brushes and sponges and added

details by sticking fabrics, papers and sequins.

At the time this was the largest painting the Artclub had attempted and

this is the first time it has been on display. We hope you enjoy it!

As soon as you enter the building you see the display of “The Very Hungry

Caterpillar made by KS1 to celebrate Harvest Festival which took place at

Robin Hood Primary School.

Approximately 2000 people will pass this display a week!
