Roll over Picasso

More exciting activities in classes 9, 10 and 11. The childern have been using two very different techniques to create art. They have been painting pictures of the old school using sand to give their painting a textured effect.

Then using 'Picasa' a simple to use software package they created authentic looking black and white photographs of the new school. Picasa is free to download and allows you turn photos into films, collages, slideshows and much more.
