Whitefield Nursery Garden Sculpture Trail
Flying fish, chattering frogs, a large snake coiled around a tree, lizards and scorpions are some of the animals that have been specially created for the nursery garden out of clay. You can find out all about the lifecycle of a frog, and what kind of creatures you might come across in a garden in Pakistan.
Already the children from Mrs. Jackson’s yr 1 class have followed this project up with another sculpture project, looking at arches and exploring what makes Whitefield special. This time Marjan has introduced wire, willow and recycled materials. The project will be further developed in the next academic year.
We have been promising to do this for a while and better late than never but Arteach has expanded the membership by 3 new artists
Arteach member Julie miles has been working with youth groups and the Haworth Art Gallery over the summer to create ceramic sculptures inspired by the house itself.
