Our Madingley Year 1 and 2s visited the Fitzwilliam Museum this half term. They focused on sculptures and participated in a workshop. Children learnt about 'what is a sculpture' and looked out for differences between realistic and abstract ones. They also learnt about the use of different materials in sculpture. At the end of the workshop, pupils made their own sculpture using pipes, bottle tops, feathers, strings and tubes.
