Fine Art Students' Fine Afternoon Out!


The International Study Centre GCSE Art class went to visit the Oxford University Natural History Museum on Wednesday 28th of September to investigate forms in nature as part of their GCSE coursework.

It was a beautiful afternoon with clear blue skies and a low autumnal sun making it perfect for drawing and sketching both inside and outside the museum.

The students were able to use a whole range of materials as inspiration, from dinosaur skeletons to tree roots, fossils, shells and even a living bee hive! Helen Wilson, one of our Art teachers, who lead the group said, "it was a great success and the students all produced some excellent work".

Wendy Rawding, Head of Art
