THE first-ever art competition organised by York-based Portakabin has given children the unusual opportunity to have their artwork displayed on the outside of their new classroom building.
Children from the after-school art club at East Ward Community Primary School in Bury collaborated with their teacher to create the eye-catching graphics which feature a unique floral design to reflect the school’s ethos of growing and learning together.
The winning design was then developed by Portakabin into a striking finish which was applied along the façade of the classroom building that has recently been installed.
Teacher Jill Ashton said: “We used flowers and plants to symbolise our school motto which is ‘Growing and Learning Together’.
“We are all passionate about this theme which is at the very heart of our school. We absolutely love the fact that it is now reflected on our wonderful new classroom block.”
