Arts Award Showcase: Celebrating Two Years of Talent

On Thursday 13 March the Year 13 Arts Award pupils put on a brilliant showcase showing the breadth of their creativity across the past two years. The evening started with a premiere of three films by Mary, Olly and Dexter. This was organised and presented by Georgia.

Two fantastic workshops in stop animation and origami were hosted by Charlie and Nao respectively.

Flora and Mandy reprised the brilliant photo booth concept from their Curation Project and Isabella and Evie displayed photos from the excellent Dance and Vocal Showcases that they organised last year. Lola and Freya presented the prizes to the winners of their wonderful Sewing Bee which featured pupils and teachers from all the Houses. Amelia showcased her intricate, beautiful textiles design and Noah presented photos from the Year 9 Drama project which he directed.

The whole evening was expertly curated by Martha with the poster and signage designed by Al.

We look forward to seeing Jossi in Layla’s production of Waiting for Godot in a few weeks’ time. 

A group of people, including students and adults, gather around a table with a laptop and tablet during an Arts Award event. Some are smiling and watching whilst one person uses the tablet in a bright indoor setting. Three people fold origami paper at a table during an Arts Celebration. Their hands hold patterned paper and point at origami instructions. A glass of water, mobile phone, and another glass are also on the table. Two women wearing scarves admire photos and text on a well-lit gallery wall during an arts celebration. Other attendees mingle in the background, whilst an easel with artwork sits on a plinth in the foreground. Two teenagers chat in a brightly lit room at the Arts Celebration, one smiling with arms crossed in a yellow and white jacket. Several adults converse near a screen, and colourful coats hang on the right. A woman wearing a dark blazer and name badge reaches up to touch a bright orange bag hanging on a wall, alongside other colourful bags. She is standing indoors at an arts celebration, looking at the bags with interest. A person in a suit uses a tablet to film LEGO minifigures on a blue baseplate during a Talent Showcase, whilst others work at the same table with green and blue baseplates and LEGO pieces. Four young men in formal attire work at a table with laptops and tablets. Behind them, a blackboard displays Gold Arts Award 2025, setting the stage for an inspiring talent showcase or workshop meeting. Two young men sit at a table, focused on tablets. One holds a small Lego figure while the other checks the screen, likely preparing for an Arts Award project. Another person’s arm is visible as they collaborate closely on their creative work.
