Thornfield House School Northern Ireland- Some of our Home Economics work

 The Making Easter Egg nests was completed by our Y8 before Easter. They were able to take them home and share them with their family.

Making pizzas. Our Y8 pupils loved making the pizzas and choosing their own toppings. The HE ( Mrs. McAllister) teacher was able to get pizza boxes for our pupils to bring them home. They looked very professional.

Thornfield House School & Outreach Services - Art work from Y8

John Luka was born in Belfast. 1906-1975. He was a painter, sculpter, muralist and print maker most of Northern Ireland landscapes.

Our Y8 class were shown a variety of his print work.  Then they drew a scene they chose from Northern Ireland and drew this on paper.  They then transferred the outline scene unto fabric.  Next they used Gold Gutta to cover these outlined lines.  When this had dried they used fabric dyes to colour in their artwork.  They concentrated really well and had lots of fun.  They were able to frame their work if they wanted to.
