Year 5 Creative Connections
Mr. McKenna’s Year 5 pupils have been taking part in the Creative Connections Project, an arts‑based programme designed to develop children’s creativity, confidence and collaboration through hands‑on experiences in visual art and drama.
As part of the project, pupils worked with Emma, exploring a range of art techniques. They learned how to create their own charcoal, used it to produce expressive drawings, and also designed and decorated their own masks. These sessions encouraged creativity, experimentation and enjoyment in art-making.
The class also had the opportunity to collaborate with Ciaran, who led engaging drama workshops. Pupils explored performance through movement, role-play and group activities, with a focus on participation, being active and building self‑confidence. They learned about the drama process and enjoyed working together in new and imaginative ways.
Year 5 are looking forward to continuing their work on the Creative Connections Project over the coming weeks. We would like to thank Emma and Ciaran for their enthusiasm, expertise and the wonderful experiences they have provided so far.
