Within the department we have 2 specialist Art studios in which we have the facilities to create masterpieces in a wide variety of media including fine Art, textiles, sculpture, printmaking, ceramics and digital Art. We also have a computer suite and department Ipads which we use regularly to aid resourcing and for photography and digital manipulation.

We had a lovely prom at Greenhill Hotel on Thursday 29th June. Despite the weather, there were smiling faces all around and everyone had a great time. Everybody looked stunning, even the teachers, and the venue was decorated to match. It was a night of delicious food, music and dancing and was a fitting way for year eleven to say goodbye.

On our last day we went to La Sagrada Familia, a cathedral designed by Gaudi.
