Year 7 Bunting Club

Year 7 Students Create Stunning VE Day-Inspired Buntings for Maidstone Arts Hub

We are incredibly proud to share the fantastic work of our Year 7 students, who recently took part in a creative community project commissioned by Maidstone Borough Council. As part of the council’s commemorative VE Day celebrations, our students were tasked with designing and creating decorative bunting to be displayed at the Maidstone Arts Hub over the summer.

The project began with a unique collaboration between the council and local residents, who attended specially organised events to create initial design ideas. These inspiring contributions were passed on to our talented Year 7 students, who brought them to life using a variety of recycled materials and textile techniques.

The project was further enriched by the involvement of the school’s Godference Club, whose members created stunning artwork inspired by themes of peace and hope.  The result is a vibrant collection of handcrafted buntings that reflect creativity, collaboration, and community spirit.
