Why Britain is Great: British Artists

October 19, 2018
During Why Britain is Great week, children visiting 6MS learnt about the British artist Banksy. Our pupils looked at and discussed his works as well as the techniques that he used to produce his art: graffiti and stencils. After designing their own stencils, each class printed them onto their own wall'.

The children were fascinated by the work Britain's most elusive artist and, inspired, they created some amazing artworks of their own!
