Burton on the Wolds Traveller Mural

Over the past few days I have been working with travelling children at Burton on the Wolds Primary school to create a mural based on their incredible lifestyle. Designed through consultation with the children, their descriptions, pictures and family owned rides, this mural brings colour and sparkle to the entrance to the school, reflecting the higher than average proportion of traveller children there. Once designed, the children painted the whole mural, with my supervision and encouragement, and showed enormous pride in doing so. Their parents have visited, adding ideas, making this a truly collaborative piece.
