Mayor of Verwood (Sandra Grove) in front of artwork by Jasmin Bartlett in Y13 studying Fine Art
The beginning of July saw Ferndown Upper School’s second week-long Summer Show, where a comprehensive range of students’ work from Fine Art, Photography and Textiles, at both GCSE and A Level, went on display to the public. This excellent showcase of talent was bigger and better than ever this year, as students from Music, Drama and Design Technology also had the opportunity to share their hard work and passion with the local community. Amongst local dignitaries who attended the show were the Mayor of Ferndown, Cllr Julie Robinson, who was very impressed with the high quality and variety of work on display and also the Mayor of Verwood, Sandra Grove, who said she was enjoying celebrating the “Excellent work and amazing talent” on view.
Also attending the Summer Show were a number of students from the local first and middle schools as well as members of local art societies, as Ferndown Upper continues to grow its prestigious reputation for Creative Arts excellence amongst the local community and beyond.
