WE WON!

London Olympics 2012 Poster Competition!

Class 4 with Mrs Glare entered the Olympics Poster Competition. We were one of just 20 winners from schools around the whole country!

Our design, along with the other 19 winners, has been made into one of the official posters for the olympics.

This term in art we have been exploring repeating patterns. For one of these tasks, we used primary colours to create some brilliant pieces of artwork - don't they stand out?
