Chantry Middle School has been lucky enough to be involved with “Elmer’s Great North Parade” in aid of St. Oswald’s Hospice. This is a fantastic opportunity for the pupils to have their artwork exhibited and viewed by thousands of members of the public.
We were asked to design and paint a large, fibreglass “Elmer the Elephant” sculpture which will be exhibited in the North East along with some even larger artist-designed elephants.
The whole school took part in the competition to design our Elmer sculpture and prizes were presented at the “Elmer Assembly”, attended by St. Oswald’s Hospice.
The winners and some of the runners up have been having fun painting our Elmer who is called “Day and Night in the Rainforest”.
You will be able to see all the elephants across Tyne and Wear from August to November.
Runners up – Lucy, Rachel, Felicity, Emma, Eva and Katie.
Key Stage 2 winner – Ryan-Lee
Key Stage 3 winner – Naomi
