CHILDREN who attend Cowbit Primary School always leave behind a memory when they move on to big school, and this year’s is going to be eye-catching.
The 11 Year 6 children, helped by one or two pupils from Year 5, decorated a large model of a cow with 3D decopatch on Friday and wrote messages on the animal’s legs as a lasting memorial to their time at the school, as did two teachers who are also leaving.
Meanwhile, children at the after-school club have decorated two large giraffes with the paper patchwork pieces, so the school will have three animals to varnish and put on display for future schoolchildren to enjoy, such as the ten pupils joining the school in September.
Artist Angela Nicholls worked on the project with the children.
