Year 8 students recently took part in the 2024 Recycled Fashion Event, an exciting enrichment activity that combined science, graphics, art, textiles, and media. Students worked on a range of projects, including designing posters, creating headdresses, producing news reports, making LED bracelets, and designing garments.
The theme of the day was animals, with students creating vibrant carnival-inspired outfits based on creatures like penguins, elephants, and flamingos. Everything was made from recycled materials, with students bringing in unwanted clothes and objects to repurpose.
The event culminated in a lively photoshoot and a fashion show, with models showcasing their creations and acting out their animals on the catwalk. The day not only raised awareness of the importance of recycling but also helped students develop valuable skills in problem-solving, design, and creativity. It was a truly memorable experience for all involved.
