Guess what? Bitterne Manor is famous! Last half term Swifts and Swallows were lucky enough to have artist Kev Munday ask them to help contribute to a project which would be put on display for all to see. He's an up and coming artist who is very creative! Children created funny creatures out of all sorts of materials and used a range of resources. Kev picked a selection to build up a billboard which is now up and on show. This will be up until the 11th of February (at the bottom of Cobbett Road, behind Kwik fit) He was utterly impressed with all pieces and took inspiration from all of them. As well as this, all of the children's original pieces have been put up on display in an exhibition in Showcase Gallery in Southampton. This will be open to the public from 2nd February - 14th April. We will definitely be organising a trip next half term so all the children can see their wonderful work up on display...how exciting!
As this is such an amazing opportunity to celebrate the children's achievement, the Echo would like to do a piece on the billboard and talk to some of the children who contributed towards the artist's inspiration. This will happen soon, so I'll be in touch when it happens :) We are thoroughly proud of each and everyone of them, go Swifts and Swallows!
