Charnie
Created by: South Charnwood High School
Location: Phoenix Cinema and Arts Centre
Overview
Many South Charnwood High School pupils joined our competition to design Charnie. Two joint winners and three runners-up were chosen for designs embodying school life. These pupils then combined their design elements in order to paint Charnie, which was done alongside year 10 Art pupils. Charnie’s design includes the oak tree which is part of our school environment and logo, and the nature seen all around us – all mixed with references to subjects studied to show our strong learning ethos.
