Despite working on the hottest
day of the year, students
showed fantastic enthusiasm
and commitment throughout.
The canvases were painted
with acrylics and layered with
screen-printed elements,
allowing students to learn new
techniques while developing a
shared visual language. The
six finished artworks will now
be displayed across The
Learning Trust high schools
as a lasting reminder of this
successful collaboration.
A huge thank you to Anna
from all the staff and students
involved. Her generosity in
sharing her experiences,
knowledge and creative
practice made the day both
inspiring and memorable.
