Chauncy School Art Exhibition

On Thursday 7th March 2013 Chauncy School opened a special art exhibition for primary schools in Ware and Hertford.  Each school was invited to enter up to 20 pieces of art work from Year 5 and 6 pupils.  We are very pleased to have a section in the exhibition displaying some of the portrait work that Shakespeare, Tolkien and Horowitz children have been working on.

Horowitz Class entered their giant Henry VIII portrait which was created on our Tudor day in November.  The class worked together to create the giant portrait.  We were thrilled to be told that our Henry VIII was 'highly commended'.  Another member of Horowitz Class was awarded third prize for his self-portrait and was presented with a certificate and art pack containing different art materials.

Thank you to everyone who came along to see the exhibition.  We appreciate your support.  If you would like to go and see the art work on display the exhibition is open everyday after school from 4-6pm at The Chauncy School.

  2. Congratulations to all the children participating in the Chauncy Art Competition. Thanks to the teachers, who despite all the pressure on continuously improving English and Maths, haven't forgotten the importance and pleasure of doing Art. Well done.

  4. It was is a fantastic exhibition and the artwork looks even more impressive in a dedicated gallery. Well done to all who took part. I thoroughly enjoyed the evening and the awards were well deserved. Lots of great work from other schools as well, which serve as inspiration.
