Year 1/2 Heron class @FP are learning about the famous artist, Van Gogh. We’ve learned about his background and his style. and now we are learning about his art. Did you know that Van Gogh loved using contrasting colours? Neither did we, but now we do! We saw examples of this in his art, and reminded ourselves of the primary and secondary colours, before designing a Van Gogh-style flower that shows contrasting colours. We hope you like it!

World Book Day in Heron was incredible! Firstly, the costumes – Wow! Who knew Spiderman was in so many books! Next, the reading activities! We were blessed with a VIP reader, we did drama, acting out famous stories, we read picture books to ourselves and each other, and even guessed the Masked Readers! What an amazing day to reinvigorate our love for reading. Bring it on again in 2026!
