Our local environment
St Nicholas CE Primary School
All year groups at St Nicholas CE
Primary School, Bath, joined in with the project. As
the school is surrounded by countryside, the children
compared the landscape in Rubens's painting with their
own. Year 6 pupils (10- to 11-year-olds) took digital
photographs of their local environment to use as primary
sources for painting small watercolours. Pencil sketches
helped them concentrate on detail as well as composition.
