Creative Arts
At Hatherleigh School we aim to engage, inspire and challenge pupils, equipping them with the knowledge and skills to experiment, invent and create their own works of art.
Creative Thursday gives them access to different elements of art, music and dance. This complements learning in class where they have the opportunity to use different medium and respond to different stimuli.

Oaks worked on line in Creative Thursday this half term. We worked on continuous line drawings, used the Kleki program on the laptops and created different polystyrene tiles to print with.
