Gumbo




Today we had a visit from local artist Joseph Betty (Gumbo) and his family. It was fantastic. He and his wife are both artists and they showed us their work and told us what influences them when they paint. They told us to paint what we feel and to keep working hard.
Gumbo is a Cubist and loves the work of Pablo Picasso. They were very impressed by our paintings too!
You can see their work on display at Cafe Del Sol in Caymana Bay, and pretty soon you might see some of our work there too!
Thank you so much to the Betty family for sharing your art with us and for inspiring us to keep painting.

We're the new Year Six!



















Hello! We are the new Year Sixes and our new teacher is Mrs Sim. As you can see we have been very busy since we came back to school this year. We have visited the National Gallery in George Town and we have turned our classroom into an art gallery too!
We have been cooking and swimming, reading and writing, exploring and experimenting. Keep checking back to our page to see what we get up to. It's a lot of work and a lot of fun in Year 6.
