Year 6 – Africa

Year 6 learnt about Lions and how much of their habitat is being destroyed.  They also discovered that it is a myth that they are ‘The King of the jungle’ as they do not even live in jungles.

They then created these stunning  portraits of lions, using watercolours.  Each one was a masterpiece!

These characterful Zebras make your eyes go funny if you look at them for too long.  They are inspired by Vasarely’s 1937 zebra painting.  The painting sold in 2010 for £485,000!

Vasarely(9 April 1906–15 March 1997) is considered to be the ‘grandfather’ of the Op Art movement and the children have certainly embraced the Op Art vibe. Great job, Year 6!
