Tribute to Alfie Carpenter

 

Alfie Carpenter was a young local artist who came in to work with the children on several occasions. He added a unique and joyful perspective to the art work that he showed the children how to do. They loved working with him and produced some phenomenal work. He very sadly died last year. We have framed up the wonderful pieces that he completed whilst working with the children and these will be displayed in school.

The children reflected on their time with Alfie.
