		Ravi and Linden's GCSE Work	Ravi and Linden, two former Year 8 pupils, have achieved excellent results taking a GSCE in Art and Design. Their work is expressive, personal and well observed.
		Celebration Cards	The Year 5 boys worked on a project whereby they used abstract shapes and colours in Windows Paint to create an abstract design that had a positive happy look and feel to it. These images were then worked on and developed using Corel Painter 9 and Wacom drawing tablets. The goal was to produce celebration cards that could be used in any faith or context.
		Yr6 Commercial Photography June 06	The boys were making web pages for an IT components company and they were asked to make ordinary rather boring IT equipment appear attractive and interesting by using studio photography techniques. They used lights with coloured gels and long exposure times to achieve these results.
		Photo Editing Using Surrealism as a Genre	The boys from 7J were learning how to use photo editing software with the key concept that Surrealist imagery works particularly well with this technology. They spent some time exploring surrealist pictures in order to prepare for this project.
		Year 4 Florist Shopfront	Year 4 boys worked on a project that included language work, digital painting and graphic design in order to create a shop front display board. They used PowerPoint to combine all of these elements together.
		Year Six 3d Human Figure Modelling	The boys were set the task of creating models of the human figure and then placing that figure in an environment. They used photographs of mannequins as a reference and they created their models using Aspex Tabs 2. They started with simple models and moved on from there.
		Vector Drawing Skills	Using IT to create vector drawings is a basic design skill that can be applied to many different situations ranging from creative picture making through to Computer Aided Design. The boys were set the tasks of creating a sports car design and creating a map of the school. They traced over photographs in order to get themselves started.
		St Johns in the Rain	The boys from 7G were set the challenge of using photographs of the school site on a wet day in order to create a surrealist photomontage image that would say more about the school site than a conventional photograph.
