Legacy of Hope

The Art Department have worked to a brief set by the R.E Department to complete a set of handmade butterflies. The most striking designs will be entered into a competition which will see The Holocaust Museum in Houston, USA , display 1.5 million butterflies in 2012 to remember all the children that died in the Holocaust.
The butterflies have been made by Year 8 students in their Art and Design lessons, after Miss Wright found an inventive technique to create the butterflies. The designs were meant to represent the tragedy of the Holocaust and also symbolise a sense of hope as these children will not be forgotten.
