Art and Design

Art Education enables children to use, understand and enjoy visual forms of communication.                 

At St James The Great we emphasise the importance of careful observation as the key to an appreciation of line, form, shape, pattern, tone and colour in the environment. 

The skills of drawing, painting and craft work are taught at appropriate stages and also the use of a variety of tools and materials so that the children can use their developing knowledge and skills in increasingly challenging contexts.
