Anyone
thinking Art is just splashing some paint onto paper
would be wrong. At Chapter House Art enhances and improves
so much in a child. It develops the ability to think
and act creatively, building sensory awareness and imagination
by looking and seeing.
We therefore think Art is important and pupils cover
such topics as; Drawing, Painting, Printmaking, Photography,
Collage, Textiles, Design, Computer and raster generated
images, Sculpture, Crafts, Architecture, Model making
and Constructions.
Above all else Art develops creativity which spills
over into so many other subject areas.

LAMDA GRADE RESULTS Excellent |
Drama classes in Chapter House
provide a safe environment for children to explore situations,
roles and relationships derived from real and imaginary
life. This can be for such purposes as communicating ideas
and feelings to an audience, investigating possible causes
and consequences, or exploring the use of language in different
contexts
Drama provides children with the opportunity to develop
a range of skills such as movement, mime, improvisation,
play building, scriptwriting and public speaking. |
The ability to communicate well
is vital at all ages and never more so than latter in adult
life. An enjoyable early start in this area can develop
confidence for years to come.
Appreciation of Drama is also important and many individuals
have found their life long enjoyment of the theatre started
when they were young.
Children are encouraged to work with confidence and
enjoyment. Cooperation is fostered and each year level
presents performances to the other students in Junior
School, parents and friends. |
