WHERE SCHOOLS CAN DISPLAY
THEIR PUPILS' ARTWORK

Burlington is a large successful Junior school in New Malden and is part of the Royal Borough of Kingston upon Thames. The school has a history of success with many generations of children being well prepared, not only for Secondary school, but for adult life. Children at Burlington are expected to work hard and achieve their potential across the curriculum. This is led by a dedicated and talented staff who demand high standards and set a vigorous pace of learning. Literacy, numeracy and good work habits are given the highest priority in the curriculum. There are high standards of behaviour at Burlington with an emphasis on care and consideration for others. There is strong support for children who find areas of learning or behaviour difficult and all staff are fully committed to working closely with parents and carers. The Junior School has strong links with the Infant School and every effort is made to ensure a positive move for children between the schools.

Art Project Information.

Seaside
These pupils made closely observed pencil studies of natural forms. They used the medium sensitively to achieve the result they wanted. Line has been used to record the form and the patterns and textures on the objects.

Portrait
Pupils responded well to the theme of Portraits. They began by working with mirrors looking at basic facial proportions and using tone to represent form They used the Internet and other sources to explore the portrait work of an artist They then went on to draw themselves and other children using pastels as well as drawing symmetrically. The examples show particularly good observation of shape, pattern and texture. While making the final image they were encouraged to view and compare this with other children’s portraits in the class.
Victorians
This drawing/painting shows a developing understanding of space and proportion.
The pupil has understood the potential of what they were asked to do to create a strong and highly effective image.
