At Holy Trinity our aim is to provide children with opportunities to explore and gain an understanding of the world around them in a creative context, making links across the curriculum to deepen understanding of all new learning.

As part of the Holy Trinity Curriculum, learners are encouraged to express themselves when learning about all areas of the curriculum.

This personal discovery is developed through using a range of artistic mediums including drawing, painting, sculpture and design and the children thoroughly enjoy all their creative learning experiences.

Finding out about the wider world through exploration of different artists and designers from past and present, means, their understanding of their place in the world and in history becomes more meaningful.

Design and Technology is about pupils learning to develop their capability through their designing and making skills.

All children are given the opportunity to experience a range of materials, to observe, identify and understand elements of design, both natural and synthetic.

Children are given the opportunity to:

• Design and make products
• Develop and practice particular skills through focused practical tasks
• Engage in activities which enable them to investigate and evaluate simple products
