Hope
Created by: Snarestone Church of England Primary School
Location: Highcross Upper Mall – John Lewis bridge
Overview
Hope, our baby elephant, is a vibrant symbol of our school and village. One side features a swan, heron and kingfisher, representing our class names and a nod to the Ashby Canal which runs through the village. The other side features a rainbow patchwork, embodying diversity and hope, a powerful symbol of acceptance and equality. Its blanket, covered in fingerprints, celebrates every member of our school. Designed from children’s ideas, Hope proudly reflects our shared identity, creativity, and community spirit.
