Today, one of our ex-students came in to collect their artwork. We had been using one of their drawings as an example of good practice linking to the Ian Murphy inspired mixed media drawing techniques. We are sad to see the drawing go but we wish Stephen all the best in the future.

A group of Art students just returned from a College trip to Auschwitz and are keen to express their experiences through the medium of Art. The trip was organised in conjunction with the Lessons From Auschwitz programme run by the Holocaust Educational Trust and links with the students’ Personal Investigation unit of their A2 studies.

"Visiting such a significant place in history was really overwhelming. Walking the same pathways as the victims and seeing there most treasured belongings was beyond moving and the day was absolutely amazing. It's one of those things that you cant imagine until you're there because you can't predict how you will react. It was a brilliant experience." - Jessica Massey - Fine Art Student at Ashton Sixth Form College.
