Arran Paintings and Writing

Beech Class children painted Scottish landscapes in the style of Scottish artist Jolomo. After visiting Arran, they painted the view of Holy Isle from the Centre in the same style. They also wrote spells about Arran in the style of “The Lost Words” by Robert McFarlane as we were gifted a copy of this book by the Centre.
