Love a trip to Belfast School of Art to the Degree Shows and in particular the work of our past pupil Tess. She presented her knitwear collection, inspired by the sea life, rock pools, cliffs and nature of Rathlin Island, to our year 13 pupils. @Careers_BASFC @tess.textiles – at Belfast, Northern Ireland

It’s beginning to look a lot like Christmas in the Art Department. Art Club requested early Christmas activities and who are we to argue? 🎄🎅🎄
