As part of ongoing links between Bridgnorth Endowed and local primary schools, the Creative Arts Department organised an exciting textiles project with St Mary’s Bluecoat Primary School earlier this month.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The idea behind the two-day project was for Year 10 art GCSE students from BES to work alongside pupils at St Mary\u2019s to create a final product for a showcase assembly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Year 10s helped the primary school children with basic sewing and joining skills, as they crafted the fabric items that were assigned to their year group.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Hand puppets were made in Years 1 and 2, teddies were lovingly created by Years 3 and 4, and Years 5 and 6 were tasked with making cases for either an iPhone or iPad. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

BES art teacher, Mrs Rhodes, said: \u201cOur Year 10 students thoroughly enjoyed the experience and worked hard for the two days, supporting the children as they made finished products they could be very proud of.\u201d <\/p>\n\n\n\n
