Last week saw the annual WIS Wearable Arts Show presented to the school. 

Many weeks of preparation, imagination and a lot of hot glue sticks went into creating these outstanding outfits. The students created their outfits as part of a module programme. The following outfits used a variety of recycled materials. There was no limit to what could be reused or recycled.

Photo above:  First place: “A Writer’s Dream” by Natalya Scott in Room 1.  This design was carefully constructed out of recycled book pages. The lights in the design represent a writer’s ideas and inspiration. This design also features paper houses and folded paper flowers.
