Wakefield Girls’  Art and Design students experienced a wonderfully creative visit to London over half term. Our GCSE and A-Level Art, DT and Textiles students travelled to London with their teachers to visit museums and exhibitions to enhance their wider curriculum of learning and provide inspiration for their exam projects.   

Our Art and Textile students visited the V&A and The Tate Modern together and separately also visited the Natural History Museum and Somerset House.

Our DT students visited Battersea station and the Design Museum.

All of the exhibitions provided students with a wealth of inspiration and knowledge for modern, historical and cultural work while also taking in many other landmarks of London while walking around and taking flight on the London Eye.

A social highlight of the trip was an evening at the theatre to watch Grease The Musical which was fantastic and had our party singing and dancing in their seats.
