Our Zero to Hero theme in Year 2 introduced us to the artist Christy Brown.
We learned about how Christy found it difficult to use and control movements in his arms and hands due to his cerebral palsy, therefore he had to find an alternative way to produce his art. We talked about how inspirational this was as he never gave up on his dreams to be an artist, showed resilience and like a true Pathfinder he ‘Found A Way’.
Like Christy Brown, we tried using our feet to create some art. This proved quite difficult and we started to gain an understanding of how Christy may have felt, as well as the determination he needed to become the brilliant artist he was.
