About our project...

For the last few weeks of Term 4 and the first 5 weeks in Term 5, we will be working on a collaborative project with a group of adults and the staff at Beulah Resource Base. Each Wednesday for the first 4 weeks of June we will be producing work in workshops at BRB and The BRIT School , then we will spend the remainder of the week in school working on the material created and gathered to produce work for the final event. There will be a Celebration day in week 5 (Wednesday 6thJuly) at BRB where we will share our outcomes.

A SENSE OF ME: Aim of project: To create sensory installations at BRB exploring memories and/or ambitions of the adults. Between workshops students will be developing the animations and other material towards the sensory installations.

Second Workshop: Brit

I was looking forward to seeing the adults and showing them what we'd been up to this week. Dawn was excited to see the storyboard I'd made about her holiday and couldn't wait to start making plasticine models for our marquette. I also worked with VJ this week, who was eager to help us out, I felt we worked well as a group and managed to bring our marquette to life. The workshop today has developed my ideas for our installation and got me thinking about things to include inside it. When we spoke to the adults about making life size installations of our marquettes they were overwhelmed with excitement and couldn't wait to begin making next week. There was a real buzz after the workshop was over, we all felt we got to know the adults better and we now have more of an insight into their individual learning difficulties. I'm looking forward to next week’s workshop as it now feels that our plans are truly being brought to life.
