HONEYWOOD ART COMPETITION 2008

Our themes "Mother Nature" or "Father Time"
have been chosen with a view to fitting in with the school art
curriculum. Mother Nature is fairly self explanatory. Father Time is
more open to interpretation and was chosen with Key Stage 3 in mind. QCA
standards Art and Design units 7B, 8A, 9A and 9C could probably be
fitted under this heading with an appropriate choice of subject. I still
have the “before and after” pictures of an ageing red pepper done by my
son in year 8. The wizened pepper definitely fits the theme of Father
Time!
QCA Unit 10 gen...well what can I say … “Visiting a museum, gallery or site”! It is worth noting that Honeywood has, apart from the museum objects, an art gallery which generally displays the works of local artists past and sometimes, present. If you would like to bring a school group why not phone and have a chat with us. You may prefer to enjoy the museum at your leisure, but we may be able to put together a more structured visit for you.
