Welcome
|
|
St Catherine's Preparatory School is a happy school with high expectations. We are fortunate to be located in the beautiful village of Bramley, near Guildford. The School is academically selective, providing a range of outstanding opportunities both in and out of the classroom. We encourage a love of learning in an environment where the art of creative thinking is taught, along with self-reliance. Supported by strong Christian values girls acquire self-respect, and show courtesy and consideration for others. The girls are fully prepared to move on to their senior schools, including St Catherine's. Their education is an important partnership between home and school, with shared aims and aspirations.

LIIIs Days of Wonder workshop
|
|
On Monday 1st June the LIII’s learnt about film making. A man from Days of Wonder called Adrian came in and taught us how to use the equipment. We experimented with all the different equipment like wooden manikins and jigsaw puzzles. About two weeks before we had picked a number out of a bag and had been given a character, we made a PowerPoint about our character with a partner finding information and facts. When Adrian came from Days of Wonder he taught us how cartoons are made like Wallace and Gromit and we used the exact same programme as they do. To use the animations you had to move your manikins/jigsaws/characters a tiny little bit at a time then take one or two pictures every time. You had to be very patient! At the end we made a silent film about our characters. We all brought in Sylvanians and used them to tell the story and to get the information across we wrote on pieces of paper and stuck them on our scenery on our background. We all enjoyed ourselves lots.
