McKee class have worked hard this week to produce items for our African art exhibition. As you know each class has pledged to raise £25 to buy 10 lamps for children in Chessay Ma Jaw and this was our effort.

Mrs Matthews asked the children to come up with some ideas and the most popular one was to sell their paintings and the idea of the exhibition was born.

This afternoon we set up the displays and awaited "our public" and they came.

Normally I would ask the children to contribute their words to the blog, however I am so overwhelmed at the generosity of everyone who came; this included several members of staff and parents who do not have a child in McKee class, that I wanted to let you know straight away that we made over £170 and still have several IOUs to collect. Thank you so much, we will let you know the final total when we have it.

Several works of art were unsold at the end and are still available to purchase - please speak to Mrs Matthews. We hope those who have already made their investment enjoy their items for many years to come and thank you for attending our event and being so generous.

The children said they enjoyed the art sessions and were all very excited at the exhibition and thoroughly enjoyed showing their families, around as well as some other adults. Well done McKee I am proud of you. Those who purchased the art will receive it next week.
Well done McKee class it's fantastic that you raised so much. It was a brilliant art exhibition and I enjoyed looking at all your hard work.
