CHILDREN START HUGE MOSAIC AT BUCKINGHAM PARK SCHOOL

BUCKINGHAM PARK SCHOOL - SHOREHAM-BY-SEA - SUSSEX


Children at Buckingham Park school have just begun a huge mosaic project for a wall area in the new-build area of the school.

Working with me over a few days the whole school will participate in the creation of this 8m2 mosaic which depicts aspects of Shoreham-by-Sea, near Brighton in Sussex.

The design was created using the best drawings resulting from a competition for which the children were asked to depict their town, school and environs.


From left to right: War Memorial, Airport, School (Enhanced but now very Groovy!) House boats, Church, Lancing College, RNLI Lifeboat, Old Biplane, Houseboat, Old Lighthouse.


The mosaic work started on Monday and by the end of just the first day we had the top right-hand quarter completed (elements below)


I'm in "Schools" season at the moment so expect updates on this mosaic as well as two others in Eastbourne and Maidstone over the next two weeks.
