From 6:30am today until Friday 3 July 2020 at 11:59pm, they are inviting children to respond in no more than 500 words. Use your experiences and feelings to create a story. They have a clear message: your words have the power to change you and the world around you.

Football

With the return of the Premier League, many of you may have been enjoying watching football on television again. It’s a little different as the stadiums are empty. As it’s Art Week, we would like to challenge you to design a new kit for your favourite team. This can include socks, boots and even a new ball! Maybe Saints would look better playing in red and white spots instead of stripes? It’s time for you to get creative! Attached at the bottom of this page is a template, which you may wish to use. Alternatively, just draw your designs on a piece of paper. When creating your new kit, don’t forget to add some sponsors for your team. Think about where you’ll add logos. You might also want to create a flag to support your chosen team. Have fun designing!

Shakespeare

As it’s Art Week, and we know how much you’ve enjoyed learning about Shakespeare, we’ve thought you might like create some Shakespeare inspired arts and crafts! There are lots to choose from such as stormy seas or Romeo and Juliet scene sketches! Have fun exploring the Shakespeare bundle attached at the bottom of this page.
