After a two year absence the junior artists were once again able to be proudly display their artwork to the public as part of the School artwork competition at Frensham Fayre in June.

Mrs Babayan always makes sure all of her art students rise to the challenge of this event and 2022, our Jubilee year, was no exception.

For this return to public display More House students chose the challenging medium of ceramics, something of a specialism for our junior boys – with each one producing eye-catching three dimensional Royal Crown ceramic tiles.

In a fantastic result I am pleased that the judges awarded a Highly Commended certificate for the group effort, with the judges praising the boys on the clever choice of colours and great care to which the boys had collectively worked on their tiles.

However I am extremely proud to say that a First prize award was given to Thomas Featherstone for his very creative Crown tile. The judges commented on this saying “ This artist has tackled a tricky technique with clay, getting sharp, pointed shapes to the top of the crown! Often clay cracks or breaks when narrow. And the painting, and colour choice has been perfectly done.”
