WHEN Anna Bay Public School teacher Jennifer Blyth discussed revamping a storeroom as a potential art project with her students, she didn’t anticipate the amazing response.
Jennifer decided to guide the school’s Highly Gifted and Talented Education (HPGE) Art Group class in a project to paint a mural on the cleaner’s storeroom building.
After months of planning, designing and painting, their hard work has paid dividends with the transformation of the building into a stunning work of art.
Under Jennifer’s creative guidance the pupils rose to the challenge.
“What was once a plain wall is now bursting with colour and creativity – brightening one of the main walkways for everyone to enjoy each day,” said school officer Cindy Forster.
“The end result is a spectacular masterpiece that our school now gets to enjoy.
“The Art Group banded together for the project and with the assistance of Jennifer produced a mural to be proud of.
For talented Jennifer, who teaches Year 2/3, the mural project has proved a resounding success and underlines the creative art skills of the HPGE Art Group.
