We aim to give our pupils the opportunity to explore a range of processes and techniques through experimentation and creativity. We believe that a high-quality art and design education should engage, inspire and challenge pupils, equipping them with the knowledge and skills to experiment, invent and create their own tasks of art, craft and design.
At St Egwin's we introduce our pupils to a wide range of art materials and skills, such as sculpture, drawing, painting and printing. Students work with traditional and new media, learning to appreciate the appropriateness of each.

The Lord’s Prayer
Our Father in heaven,
Hallowed be your name,
Your kingdom come, your will be done,
On Earth as in heaven.
Give us today our daily bread.
Forgive us our sins as we forgive those who sin against us.
Save us from the time of trial and deliver us from evil.
For the kingdom, the power, and the glory are yours
Now and for ever.
Amen.
