Shady Days with Goldsquad

For our "Textile Extravaganza" we started by using a variety of materials - fabrics, buttons and beads to create beautiful decorative lampshades with the Goldsquad ladies at Quad.


                




Tiling at Pear Tree Infants

The Reception and Year 1 classes at Pear Tree Infants School have been busy creating a mosaic for their school.
We hope to have it put up before the end of term.
Have a look at what they have been doing.


We worked with the children making colourful bunting to collage onto the back board.






Well done to the all the children for a lovely project and thank you to Mrs Clarke and the staff of Pear Tree Infants.




Welcome in the Redhills

At the beginning of July we spent a few days at Redhill Primary School in Ockbrook creating a beautiful mosaic.The Year 6 children will be moving up to secondary schools soon, so it was a lovely way to leave something special at their school before they begin their next adventure.





We always get a wonderful 'Welcome' when we come to work at Redhill Primary, thank you to all the teaching staff and children.

Roundhill Multicultural Festival

We are always pleased to be asked to attend this fantastic event. Once again we provided a participatory activity in the form of a Well dressing. 
There were some very keen helpers who made sure we finished in time to take it over to the Beeston library, where it was displayed in the gallery space upstairs.
