Jabulani, GRADE 3

MAndla, GRADE 3

Khumo, GRADE 3

Jabulani is a very talented and creative child with a lot to share. He has a strong yet sensitive character. Towards the middle of the programme, he began giving his teacher a big hug every day before class. His drawings are detailed and express various motifs like snakes, strong men, cars and abstract forms. 

Mandla is a talented child, particularly in drawing and painting. He is quiet at times but works with great focus. Mandla has made a big improvement in his desire to participate with the class. He has helped with cleaning the class and preparing the materials, showing his enthusiasm towards the time spent creating together.

Khumo is a creative child and works very carefully with her colours and forms. She
has a natural eye for design and decorates her works beautifully.  It is a challenge for Khumo to articulate what she is feeling through some of the art class activities, but with painting she is able to intuitively focus on her work.

lindiwe, Grade 3

Ayize, Grade 3

Samkelo, Grade 3

Lindiwe is a gentle child who consistently demonstrates kindness to those around her. She works very carefully and slowly on her drawings. She enjoys drawing cats, flowers, and her friends and family. She works quietly in her own space, and when she completes a work she is extremely proud of what she has created. She has learned to express herself through the drawings she creates in class.

Ayize is an inquisitive learner who is eager to learn all the time. She is a quiet and discrete child, yet she is very good at listening to other's views and sharing opinions with her peers. She works slowly and deliberately and has a lot to share; however, it is difficult for her to express it. In her feedback, she expressed that working in art class made her feel happy. 

Samkelo is a sensitive child with an active imagination, and his insightful nature is a genuine asset to the classroom. He often draws super heroes who protect himself and his friends. He enjoys exploring and learning about new concepts all the time, and he loves sharing his ideas and keeping himself informed about technology and the world around him.

VIVA, Grade 3

Zodwa, Grade 3

Lizwe, Grade 3

Viva is a very prolific worker. He is highly talented and creative and has an
advanced sense of colour, form, and depth. He works very quickly and has an
energetic character. Viva has learned to use his drawing talent as a tool to tell his stories.

Zodwa seeks a lot of attention from the teachers, often asking for approval on what she is making. She expresses herself a lot through the symbol of a rainbow and queen, with the rainbow being represented in most of her works. Representing herself as a queen shows her need for attention, care, and strength.

Being the oldest in the class, Lizwe has been somewhat of a leader. The other boys in the class like to copy what he is drawing. He is often the peace maker or takes the initiative to help get the class to work together. He consistently follows our classroom rules of attentive listening, mutual respect, and appreciation, and he is very respectful towards his classmates.
