Art and Craft at St Mary's

At St Mary's pupils undertake a balanced programme of art, craft and design activities which builds on previous work and takes account of previous achievement.

From pre-prep to senior school, and at scholarship level they are encouraged to:

• work individually, in groups, and as a whole class
• work in two and three dimensions and on a variety of scales
• when needed be able to evaluate their own and each others work.

In the prep school pupils learn to understand and appreciate art in a variety of genres and styles, from a variety of cultures, western and non-western, often linked to form topics and individual interests.

The art room is in constant use and is a happy, relaxed yet busy area of the school used by Kindergarten to scholar students for activities and further study in a variety of media.
