Thank you and well done Sustainable Fashion club & Creative Eco I look forward to seeing you all after your well deserved breaks and can not  wait to get started in the new term with our next big project. ​

Myself and the students  would like to thank  Mrs Williams for helping out every lesson and all the parents and careers that have donated materials for our projects. Also Mrs Papos and Attie for allowing us to use the class room or all our Clubs. ​

After the Christmas break both clubs will be working on some big projects and we need help with unwanted items of clothing and recyclable materials we will be asking students and parents and teachers to bring in items after Christmas break.

Creative Eco After School Club

Over the Autumn term in Creative Eco Club students have been very busy getting creative and learning new skills. We have worked on a number of small projects over the term and students have produced their own amazing pieces of art. ​

Autumn Term 1st Half

At the start of the term for black history month students focused on African patterns and prints recreating their own prints inspired by African prints and patterns, working with scrap paper and printing with recyclable materials. Each student picked out their favourite prints then used to create a cover for their hand made art portfolios where they are now able to store and carry their artwork. ​

PAPER PRINTS AND PATTERNS
RECYCLED PRINTS ​
Students used their prints to create a piece of art work.​

Autumn Term 2nd Half

After a well-deserved half term break students came back ready to get stuck in, so for the second part of the autumn term we focused on ‘Self’ working with different recyclable materials to create different ways and techniques to show case self-portrait pieces of art. All students worked very hard on this project and produced some outstanding pieces of work over the weeks producing 3D abstract portraits, self-portrait photo recreation and an original DIY double photo frame. ​
