🎨 Impressive Printmaking in Primary 7 🎨

17th Dec 2025

Primary 7 enjoyed learning the skill of printmaking and produced some incredible work inspired by the famous Victorian printmaker, William Morris. First, the pupils examined Morris’ style before using textured wallpaper to practice the printmaking technique. The pupils then used polystyrene blocks to etch their own designs before printing them onto paper. Can you spot the repeated floral patterns in their work similar to that of William Morris? Finally, the pupils used their new printmaking skills to create some fabulous Christmas cards to give to their friends and family. Amazing work Primary 7!
