ISA Art Competition

Stoke Students create Artwork to enter into the Independent Schools Association Creative Competition. Miss Coll describes the selected pieces for entry below.

Immersion Students Flourish in Stoke Arts

Our Immersion Students have been enjoying the opportunity to study art with the their Stoke College peers in the Hambling Art studio. Under the guidance of Miss Coll, the students have been developing styles. For some this is the first time they have taken an art lesson during the school day - a fantastic example of the enrichment of the Immersion experience.

The Independent Schools Association, the non-profit organisation that supports Independent Schools across the UK, launched its own Creative Competition. Miss Coll approached Art students and asked those wishing to enter to propose themed works. The breadth of work presented to Miss Coll demonstrates the commitment of students to creativity at Stoke College.

“These are fantastic opportunities for students of any age to contribute to the art department to show their imaginative designs and outcomes.”, Miss G Coll, Art Teacher.

Congratulations to Year 9 students Bebe (above left) and Tabby (above right) and Year 8, Lily (right), whose sports designs were chosen and submitted for the ISA Sports Cover Design.

A further congratulations to Amelia and Alexis in Year 8, Astrid and Daisy in Year 7, and Emily, Connie and Flossie in Year 7 for their group submissions for the ISA Recycled Art Challenge. This challenge invited students to create artwork out of recycled materials relating to the theme of ‘Planet Earth’. We look forward to hearing the results from both ISA competitions, but in the meantime, a huge well done to all who submitted. If you wish to get involved in the next art challenge, Miss Coll will announce the next competition in school assembly in the new year, but you can always check with Miss Coll when or what the next event is.
