Art at Church Langton • Church Langton Primary School in Market Harborough, Leicestershire

One of my earliest memories of visiting our school was discovering the art room. We are very fortunate to have a room dedicated to this subject where every child is able to explore different materials and techniques under the expert guidance of Mrs Parry. Throughout my first year I have been impressed by the wonderful pieces that have been produced, both during curriculum time and from art club.

Currently on display in the school hall are pieces from each of classes linked to our theme, ‘Around the World in Arty Days’.

Whenever we think about a subject a school it is always good to hear what the children think. Nathan from year 3 says, “You can’t beat art with Mrs Parry” while Lawrence from year 3 says, “Mrs Parry is the best art teacher in the world”.

We also have our annual art exhibition, organised by Mrs Clayton and Mrs Parry, which this year is entitled “Love the Place you Live”. The link corridor is displaying the entries from each of the children and staff, please come a have a look at the wonderful range of ideas and images.

Mrs Parry is already planning ahead for next year and we look forward to art continuing to be something that everyone involved with Church Langton should be proud of.
