Everyone welcome! # Year 2 - Art ![](https://files.schudio.com/st-barnabas-primary-school/images/news/E713AED3-03C9-41B3-887E-BC0928773C10.png) 25 September 2023 Our Art lesson saw the children build on their knowledge of tones and shades. The children took inspiration from Nancy McCroskey’s 1992 work ‘Suite in Black, White and Grey’. The children used their own imagination to design tiles using various lines and shapes. Using different shading techniques, they were able to create texture and depth in their work. It was lovely to see the children become passionate about their work and proud of their end result. ![](https://st-barnabas-primary-school.schudio.com/images/news/E713AED3-03C9-41B3-887E-BC0928773C10.png) [Year 2](https://www.stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/news/tag/year-2) [Art and Design](https://www.stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/news/tag/art-and-design) [![](https://files.schudio.com/st-barnabas-primary-school/imagecache/100x100c/news/IMG_0215.jpeg)](https://www.stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/news/2023-09-25-reception-climbing-skills) Previous ### [Reception: Climbing skills ](https://www.stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/news/2023-09-25-reception-climbing-skills) [![](https://files.schudio.com/st-barnabas-primary-school/imagecache/100x100c/news/activitymore-AFA77B81-7960-436C-8A5A-5FD8B43C0106.png)](https://www.stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/news/2023-09-26-year-3-maths-representing-numbers-and-partitioning-numbers-to-1-000) Next ### [Year 3 - Maths- Representing numbers and partitioning numbers to 1,000. ](https://www.stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/news/2023-09-26-year-3-maths-representing-numbers-and-partitioning-numbers-to-1-000) ### Personal Development - [News](https://www.stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/news) - [Events](https://www.stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/events) - [Photo Gallery](https://www.stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/photo-gallery-category/our-gallery) - [Calendar](https://www.stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/calendar) - [School Council](https://www.stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/academy-life/school-council) - [Attendance](https://www.stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/academy-life/attendance) - [Fundraising](https://www.stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/academy-life/fundraising) - [Extra Curricular Clubs](https://www.stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/academy-life/clubs) - [Little Leaders](https://www.stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/academy-life/little-leaders) - [Visits and Visitors](https://www.stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/visits-and-visitors) - [British Values](https://www.stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/british-values) - [Protected Characteristics](https://www.stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/protected-characteristics) ##### Location Knowlesly Road Darwen Lancashire BB3 2JA ##### Contact Us 01254 702996 ##### Stay Connected - [Facebook](https://www.facebook.com/stbarnabasce/) - [X](https://twitter.com/stbarnabasce) © Copyright 2021–2026 St Barnabas Primary School, A Church of England Academy School & Trust Websites by [ ![Schudio logo](https://www.stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/img/logo/light.png) ](https://www.schudio.com/)
