Year 2 spent the afternoon learning about VE Day and why it’s such an important moment in history. We looked closely at the painting VE Day Celebrations, 1995 by Judy Joel and used our observation skills to think carefully about what we could see.

We then talked about what makes a great street party scene and made a list of things to include in our own artwork: blue, white and red colours, Union Jacks, balloons, bunting, and people of all ages coming together to celebrate.

The children got to work on their own VE Day street party pictures, showing fantastic creativity and attention to detail. They were all very proud of their artwork. Well done, everyone!
