Art in Schools & Communities
Felt panel made collaboratively with all the school children, carers and parents at Hevingham Primary School.
'Every Child Matters' felted wall hanging, made as part of a Family Learningevent.
Felt Panel: Hevingham Primary school Family Learning project.
14/12/2010
This remarkable one-day project made a 3' x 5' felt panel with whole school involvement and parents.
The technique was simple, wet and enjoyable: colours and mixed fibres make this a very hands-on (and 'feet-on', when it comes to the felting process!).
The panel is now on permanent display at Hevingham Primary School, Norfolk.
Made as part of the Every Child Matters scheme.
REVIEWS:
“The children and the staff have all got so much from your visit to our
school. It was refreshing to give our more talented pupils an extended
art activity. Teachers are already planning art activities using similar resources and ideas to the ones you introduced. As well as this, many of the children have been inspired to try these techniques at home.”
