Stay Creative Winners Announced!

The Stay Creative competition has now closed, and winners have been chosen!

The project, which was created by Lead Practitioner for Art, Graphics and Photography, Chris Spurr, at Valley Park School, for all students at any of the Valley Invicta Academies Trust schools, to take part in, had over 250 entries. The idea behind the initiative was to boost creativity while we all get used to the new way of working and learning from home.

The entries included painting, photography, crochet and digital illustrations to name but a few, and the standard of entries was incredibly high.

The winners have now been announced via a new padlet which you can see here: https://padlet.com/c_spurr/StayCreative2020WInners

If you see your initials, school and entry, then you have been selected – well done! A number of teachers have also received an honourable mention for their efforts! 

You can still see a gallery of all the amazing submissions here - https://padlet.com/c_spurr/StayCreative2020 then enter the password stayingcreative.

CEO of Valley Invicta Academies Trust (VIAT), Julie Derrick, said: “We have been absolutely blown away by the standard of entries and the incredible pieces of work put forward by students, and in fact staff, from all the VIAT schools. It’s so important we all stay creative during these challenging times and these brilliant submissions are a wonderful representation of that.”
