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.

Workshop 1


This visit was the second time we went to the beulah resource base. I felt that this time went relly well, the people were really welcoming and the atmosphere was nice. We seemed to get stories out of the clients, there were some really nice drawings and everybody enjoyed the lesson time, people got along and learnt something new. Our methods of getting them to talk about their memories were effective. The picture and word cards we made were very usful and made this easier. The storyboarding seemed most effective when getting ideas down. There were 3 differant ways of drawing out the stories. The blank piece of paper was usful to get ideas down and then doing a storyboard after made it clearer what to say in the story. There was also a picture of a man with a big brain and we would get the people to draw memories inside that aswell. Marie liked to plan out the story on the storyboard template and she talked about a holiday and eating cake!
