In celebration of World Environment Day on the 4th of June, a few year 12s engaged in a weeklong workshop focusing on expressing a meaningful message relating to the conservation of the environment. This included brainstorming potential ideas, drafting and creating a beautiful art piece that would communicate this message.
We chose to title the art piece “pollinators path” to recognise the impact of human life on a single busy bee. The art itself represents a bee’s journey through the multiple seasons and finding its own path. This not only expresses the need to protect animals and the environment but recognises the peaceful coexistence of nature and humans.
With the tag line “nurture nature today so bees and trees can stay” we were confident that the need to conserve nature was depicted. This awareness of environmental issues ties closely with the art project as well as the school’s very own pond. Some of us regularly volunteer to clean and renovate the pond showing how much of an impact students can make.
We look forward to the paintings being displayed in the school for future year groups of students to enjoy.
