Fusion Projects

Our Specialist Performance Art and Media status enables us to support identified partner schools and community partners in their creation of films for the festival. This year we were keen to expand the learning for the young people involved in the partner school projects, so each of these projects are fusing the art of filmmaking with a wider learning aim that the children are currently exploring…

Falcon Junior School

Eagles class at Falcon Junior School are exploring 3D media through the use of clay and are working on their writing skills. The pupils are learning the skills to make pots to contain short poems and stories that they have worked on during the sessions. 

Hall School

Badgers class at Hall School will be looking at solving a problem through drama and will also use clay to connect with the project at Falcon.
