Masquerade

Children started designing their masks towards the end of December.  It started with their drawings. They had to find out what design they wanted to put onto the mask before they finally put the real                                                                           thing into action.

Gold, silver, bronze and metallic paint was used. It took very fine paint brushes to add that special                                                                   touch to delicate areas.

                                                          It needed a lot of concentration.

                Children searched on line to get ideas for designs and colours they desired  for each mask.

                                     They experimented by mixing different paint colours.

Diamante and beads were added to give the masks a little bit of opulence.

       These are the masks now they are finished and they are hung on the wall within the Moorhens                                                                                   room.

         The close up photo's show just how much work has gone into the making of  these masks

        The top section and the face of the mask above was made by printing of a piece of  music and                                              sticking it onto the mask. I think this has a great effect.

Glitter was added to this mask above and so  gives it a different look to a lot of the other masks the                                                                         children made.

      Mesh and ribbon gave this mask a totally different look as it was the only full mask without a    headdress. However I think the combination of the bronze and the orange work well together here.

                                      A couple of peacock feathers are added to this yellow mask.

As you can see the children have worked really hard on this project. They stated off with just                         drawings and look how far they have come.

Well done to all the children who gave up their playtime to help make these wonderful masks, which                                wouldn't look out of place in one of those beautiful Venetian shops.

British Values

Children at Moorhens helped to put together a collage of all things which relate to our British values, customs and traditions. They came up with some great ideas, such as roast dinners, double decker buses, poppy's at the tower of London and the royal family. We also had a discussion on what they thought British values were and how they relate to every day life. All of this was added to a huge Union Jack which the children had lots of fun making.
