Mission Sentence At Brinkworth Earl Danby's School we believe that Art, "has the power to transform, to illuminate, to educate, inspire and motivate." (Harvey Fierstein). Our art and design curriculum aims to stimulate creativity and imagination. It provides visual, tactile and sensory experiences and a special way of understanding and responding to the world. It enables all children to communicate what they see, feel and think.
Inspiring Quotes
  • Creativity takes courage  (Henri Matisse) 
  • The aim of art is to represent not the outward appearance of things, but their inward significance. (Aristotle)
  • Art enables us to find ourselves and lose ourselves at the same time.  (Thomas Merton)
