Short Desciption

This project bring together 6 Special Schools from EU all with a slightly different area of focus and expertise but all school are aware of the social isolation of their pupils. Our project aims to tackle this issue and enable our pupils to play a more productive and involved role in our European society. Our efforts aim to ensure we raise skill levels of these vulnerable students and have a direct and life long impact on the connectivity with society in general.

Thornfield House School & Outreach Services - Art work from Y8


John Luka was born in Belfast. 1906-1975. He was a painter, sculpter, muralist and print maker most of Northern Ireland landscapes.

Our Y8 class were shown a variety of his print work.  Then they drew a scene they chose from Northern Ireland and drew this on paper.  They then transferred the outline scene unto fabric.  Next they used Gold Gutta to cover these outlined lines.  When this had dried they used fabric dyes to colour in their artwork.  They concentrated really well and had lots of fun.  They were able to frame their work if they wanted to.
