VICTORIA BATHS

Year 10 and 12 textiles students visited Manchester’s historic Victoria Baths. The students were invited to tour the baths after being tasked with a real-world brief to create a range of textile merchandise, including wallpapers and silk scarfs, to be exhibited and sold in the bath’s shop. The students spent the day learning all about the historic building and the stories of the community that helped to save the baths from demolition in 1993. To be able to work on a live-brief such as this whilst still at school is a fantastic opportunity for the students.

Congratulations to our academy coach Lauren Watson who was recognised for her outstanding commitment to netball in the North West.
