The Class 9EG pupils at Lansdowne School have been using their art lessons to design and create some timely Valentine’s cards. This has been an activity that has involved choice, as well as helping to develop some practical artistic skills.

The pupils were asked to decided which type of materials would be used to decorate their cards. There was a selection of shiny paper available in many different colours. Some careful cutting was needed to create the collage effect.

Once the cards were complete, each class member then wrote a special friendship message inside the card. These were then taken home to give to a special family member for Valentine’s Day.
