In art we have been discovering Dorset landscapes starting with sketching the school fields. Then, exploring landscape paintings by David Hockney and then exploring different painting techniques. We will be putting all of this into practice over the next few weeks. 🎨 🏝️

In #Science, we explored water transportation in plants using this simple experiment to demonstrate. The children were amazed at how quickly the colours travelled and we can’t wait to see the petals and celery change colour too! 🧫👩‍🔬🧑‍🔬
