FIRST AND SECOND YEAR ART CLASSES CREATING MASTERPIECES AT HOME DURING COVID 19

Not having ready access at home to Art materials ,( paints, glues, clay,) hasnt stopped our creative First and Second year Art Classes from having fun recreating paintings from the great Masters...from portraits to still lifes. They have used their ingenuity and found objects to recreate these works of Art.

They have created such wonderful masterpieces of their own..that there is definitely an Art Gallery in the making when the school reopens .
