National Doodle Day


Students from the Art and Design Department have participated in this year’s National Doodle Day. This event allows students to create their own doodle while raising money for Epilepsy Action (www.epilepsy.org.uk) and The Neurofibromatosis Association (www.nfauk.org).

Students had the freedom to create an image from their own imagination and through class votes, the following students were shortlisted:
Tyla Hart, Holly Nolan, Sophie Armstrong, Brooke Wilkinson, Summer Preston and Ceren Sihruyek, Billy Mann, Jkeith Chana, Luka Fisher, Michael Owen-Parke, Rowan Parfree, Ayesha Hall, Harrison Coombes.

After the event Miss Scruton, Miss Wright and members of her form (8WR) presented the shortlisted designs in the Small Hall and students and staff members were able to vote for their favourite design while contributing to the charities.
This resulted in Tyla Hart’s doodle being voted most popular, closely followed by Holly Nolan and in third place Sophie Armstrong.

A big thank you goes to Kidi Jahaj (8WR), Kayley Sharp (11SC) who enthusiastically collected the money for the charities, and all students who participated and all staff who contributed.

Tyla Hart’s design has now been entered for the National Competition.
