04.01.2022 During these times of uncertainty, the students at Brighton Primary School are certain of one thing and that is that creativity cures all. At the beginning of t...erm two, students who were required to be at school have begun to create a colourful space in their school by painting a wall mural. They turned a dull-looking place in the school into an attractive, colourful masterpiece. The colourful mural shows everything doesnt have to be dark and gloomy. Brighton Primary is a 24 Carrot Garden School, which means it has a wonderful garden which students help cultivate and learn how to cook what they grow. The painting on the mural is of a beautiful garden filled with butterflies, caterpillars, ladybugs, dragonflies, flowers, fish and a cocoon. See more
