Creative Schools Initiative ’24/’25
We are delighted to be taking part in the Creative schools Initiative. We look forward to exploring the many avenues of creativity within ourselves and school community.
We invite anyone within our school community, who has a craft or skill, to get in touch . We would love for you to share this with us.
We had a lovely visit from our Creative associate and Artist Breda Burns who demonstrated how to turn 2d materials into beautiful 3d flowers. We look forward to working with Breda over the next 2 years.
