The outdoor display of class artwork by the pupils of Scoil Assam and Scoil �ine featured again this year. The pictures were displayed on the school railings and were a wonder to behold. Each one clearly represented the combined work of a single class conceived and executed over a prolonged period in the lead up to the Festival. The dominant theme was My Raheny and the various interpretations amply demonstrated how wide you could range and still, at a pinch in some cases, stay within the terms of reference.
Given the bad weather forecast, the exhibits had been covered in a light plastic covering on the morning. The wind had this flapping around a bit which made the photographs difficult to take. So you are looking at a pale reflection of the actual works. I missed this feature of the Festival last year and am glad I managed to catch it this year.
A busy year indeed. I'll leave you to figure out the significance of individual illustrations.
My Raheny with a strong emphasis on My Springdale.
