Littletown Murals and Monsters - Murals Installed and Complete!

During my final few days at Littletown School earlier this term (an extension to the iCollaborate Project), the children worked collaboratively on a huge blue cardboard monster, whist creating images for the large mural panels which were destined to be installed in the playground.

It was wonderful to see the creative collaborations between pupils exploding with imagery and colour as each of the activities developed. The children made over 150 drawings which fed directly into the final murals (some of the drawings were actually fed to the blue monster who apparently was very hungry), whilst creating a large monster complete with moving jaw and mixed media adornments.

A Chickens Tale Complete!

After ten wonderful days at Battyeford Primary School working in the Early Years setting, the artwork and the resulting mini-animated film are now complete. I had a wonderful time working with the young children and parents on this chicken themed visual bonanza! Thanks goes out to the enthusiastic and supportive Natalie Dean, who brings a shining light of creativity to pupils and the wider community of Battyeford! Also a big thanks to Christine and the staff who were supportive throughout!
