Pupils ran an art exhibition from start to finish!

Work from the winners of the personal development programme art competition was displayed this week, alongside information on careers within the arts. This gave pupils an insight on how their creative skills can lead them into further education and careers.

We included details of art exhibitions running through the summer for things to do and even information on clubs they could join in September! Notably our Eco committee has been involved in some key events this year, including gift swaps and big clean ups. Their mission to promote sustainably and minimise waste was key. Selected members of the committee also went on an incredibly enriching trip too this week, the mock COP at the town hall led by the organisation Liverpool World Centre. Pupils have also taken part in a citizens assembly. The aim of the study was to evaluate teachers' and young people’s engagement with climate change education and research. This study links to important work being completed by Liverpool John Moores.

Pupils from chapters 7 and 8 were invited to view the exhibition as part of their end of term celebration.

In a mock election voting activity- pupils were encouraged to vote for their favourite artwork-a stand out piece!

There was a real buzz within the year group who marvelled on seeing their own work alongside that of their talented teachers! We had some wonderful entries from a variety of themes including, Earth day, Hidden wonders of the Deep, World book day and Black history month. We even had a 3D representation of the solar system!

The results of the mock election/ overall winner will be announced in September, watch this space!
