This week, we were incredibly lucky to have a special gift from The Dulwich Picture Gallery. Many of our children visited the M.C. Escher exhibition at the gallery last term and produced some beautiful artwork.
The Dulwich Picture Gallery have very generously given us a stunning piece of artwork, produced by our local community, which was inspired by the M.C. Escher exhibition. It is a spectacular mosaic metamorphosis made entirely from LEGO!

We all love our new artwork at St. Anthony's and feel very lucky to have it in our school!
During lunchtime on Wednesday, we put up some posters asking all of our children to write the first word that came to mind when they looked at the picture. Later that day, some of our UKS2 children wrote sentences to explain their reaction to, or inspired by, the Lego masterpiece!
Next half term, we will hold a creative project inspired by our new artwork- linking Writing, Maths and Art- alongside other subjects! Hooray!
