In 2005 all linccs Primary Schools embarked on an adventure to explore this painting:-
Over 380 pupils took part in the project inspired by the National Gallery’s ‘Take One Picture’ scheme. Months of hard work were celebrated at linccs very own exhibition held at Haverstock School at the end of the summer. The exhibition comprised film & animations that showed the painting come alive, collages and board games, illustrated story books, poetry, paintings and radio work.
Many outside agencies had worked alongside the pupils and teachers to assist in the creation of the exciting cross- curricular work exhibited. Story telling workshops were run for each school, consultants developed the pupils’ drama and writing skills and a professional artist was employed to help the pupils execute their ideas. Rhyl year 5 worked with radio experts from Camden Central Radio whilst others from Carlton and St.Michaels were thrilled to work on cutting edge digital work in a high tech centre.
