The Power of Paper Mache

Never underestimate the power of good old paper mache!  When funds are running low then just a load of old newspaper, pva glue and willing hands are all that's needed to create wonderful sculptures like this shark.....
Watch out for this and other sea creatures appearing on science department walls soon....!

Wow!


What a great surprise! I went to the Malvern show this afternoon to pick up our wall hanging & was overjoyed when I saw 2 rosettes pinned on.....we won 3rd prize in the under 16 category and an extra 'Well Done' merit rosette from the organisers. I can't wait to tell the students tomorrow!

Endangered Species Screensaver


This image is a compilation of various poster ideas created by year 7 students. Well done to everyone who took part, there were some fantastic posters and congratulations to Ezme Whitehouse and Laura Wilding for winning the inhouse competition.

The national poster competition was organised by the British Science Association as part of National Science & Engineering Week.  There were 3,376 entries in the KS2 category and although none of our entries won we all enjoyed taking part. Posted by Picasa

Quilts UK Malvern


'Endless Forms', a wall hanging created by 8EP and 8JLT as part of the art residency will be on show at Quilts UK, Three Counties Showground, Malvern from 13th to 16th May.  I will be at the show Sunday and I'm looking forward to seeing the students' work in a professional setting.  Drop in if you have the chance, I'm sure it will be a lovely show.
