Art in Schools
Since 2008 I have led many different types of Arts and Minds Workshops in many primary schools throughout Oldham. Here are some examples of the workshops available:
INDIVIDUAL CLASS WORKSHOPS: linked to a class topic
MASTERCLASSES: the children and teacher watch a demonstration then recreate this in their own classrooms
LARGE SCALE ART WORK: a group of children make a permanent work of art for their school
IN-SERVICE TRAINING: twilight sessions for all staff to try new ideas in a hands on session
ARTIST IN RESIDENCE: the school provides a theme on which I work alongside pupils and staff -
For every Arts and Minds Workshop, I bring all the necessary equipment, brushes, paints, pencils and papers
I am a qualified primary school teacher with 12 years experience of teaching all age groups from Reception to Y6
SCHOOL WORKSHOP PRICES- all materials provided
Cost for FULL DAY all materials provided : £250 *
*REDUCED RATES FOR WORKSHOPS LASTING LONGER THAN 3 DAYS
Mornings : £195
Afternoons : £150
Twilight INSETS £175 {all materials provided}
For seven years I was the residential artist at Medlock Valley Community School .
I led projects on The London Olympics; Folk art and tales from around the world; Imagine Nature; 3D, work based upon class topics; very large whole class works based on curriculum themes using printing, painting and drawing skills, 3D projects on Multicultural themes, we used clay, papier mache, textiles and weaving. My final project was teaching drawing skills based on the local environment..
Medlock Valley School is a wonderful school in which to work and I feel privileged to have been asked to lead the art projects.
