This week Year 2, Year 3, Year 4 and Year 5 children were lucky enough to visit the gallery at Sunnybank Mills to see the latest exhibition called ‘Soft light.’ They took some time to look at the different pieces of artwork. They looked at the shadow puppet theatre in the centre of the gallery and had the opportunity to use some of the shadow puppets that were there and watched how the shadows could be moved and used to tell stories. They then had the opportunity to create shadow puppets of their own using black paper and scissors.  Each child was then able to take their puppet back to the puppet show and see their very own creation come to life in the gallery. The children thoroughly enjoyed this experience and had a great time guessing what creature or object each of their friends had created by their shadow that they could see. It was wonderful to see the children looking at and talking about the different types of art from photography to paintings and sculpture.
