On Friday 14th July, 44 pupils’ creative work from across Chantry and Newminster was moderated and all successfully passed.

Jane Grey, the Arts Award Assessor, commented, “A beautifully presented set of very creative portfolios, showcasing the range of creative arts the young people have done. They had clearly gained a great deal through doing the award.”

Eve Haines said ‘ I loved the personal challenge as you could choose what you wanted to create’.

All pupils said they loved seeing their photography work exhibited at the Laing and enjoyed working together to create the Rocky Monster Show backdrop.
