Watercolour Exhibition and Prize winners

Congratulations to our GCSE Art & Design students who took part in The Most Painted Place Competition.  

1st prize went to Katie Murray-Smith Y9, joint 2nd prize to Fauve Hooper-Phelps and Ada Kohlmaier-Sims Y9 and runners up were Mollie-Louise Scriver Y9, Maddie Morgan-Huws Y10, Sam Legg Y10 and Millie Kerr Y9. 

The students received a combination of a limited edition art book, cash prizes and book tokens. Their work was displayed at an exhibition at the Ventnor Botanic Gardens over half term. Students had to paint a view in watercolour of Steephill Cove or Bonchurch. 

The Y10 students had an opportunity to draw on location and work with watercolour artist Becky Samuelson. 

We also had two prize winners for the art essay competition Ada Kohlmaier-Sims won first prize and Millie Kerr won second.  Well done to all the students who took part.

YR9-Cowes Harbour Landmark Design Competition

Well done to Year 9 student's for completing the Cowes Harbour competition.. some fabulous designs. We now have a news from the Judges...

Young Designers Award

The brief for this year's award was to design an innovative new way of transporting people from the top of Shanklin cliff to the beach as an alternative to the lift. Our students came up with some very imaginative ideas and made it very tricky for the judges.. This is the third successful year that The Island Free School has entered the Young Designer Award which was organised by the IOW branch of RIBA (Royal Institute of British Architects).

Students from all across the island took part in the competition.

Congratulations to all the students who took part and well done to our Year 9 GCSE Art and Design students - Taylor M who came first and Harrison  B who came third this year. The students picked up their certificates and medals during the award ceremony held at the Royal Yacht Squadron in Cowes.
