A group of teenagers have taken part in a school's first Creative Showcase.

Fourteen West Hatch High School in High Road, Chigwell, students were selected to display the work they had completed as part of their Extended Research Project on Wednesday (July 1).

The Year 7 and Year 8 pupils had their work, which included a dress made from newspaper, butterflies, a mosaic and The Globe Theatre, judged by a panel.

Katie Scollan took home the Peoples' Choice Award with her interpretation of Van Gogh's Sunflower painting, the Judge’s par excellence award went to Imogen Stephens - Butterflies, the Most informative and Engaging award was given to Kai Azizi's animation and the Most Insightful and Enriching piece was Sushanthan Chandramohan's 'Ferris Wheel'.

Teacher Naseem Alahi, the school's Extended Research Project co-ordinator, said:" Students have gone away and done some individual research and designed and recreated something of their own choice.

“We had lots of different projects - quite a few of our students went along to museums, found something that inspired them and recreated them.

"The work was of a high quality, unique, creative and well researched and the evaluated projects were showcased in an interesting and memorable evening."
