A LARGE-SCALE mosaic now has pride of place on the wall at Doddiscombsleigh Primary School.

The mosaic, which features a tree of hands, was created by children age the school as part of workshop by the Helen Foundation and project-managed by arts organisation Daisi.

Once completed, it was hung on the outside wall of the village school at a celebration event and unveiled to parents, staff and the local community.

Funds raised at last year’s Doddiscombsleigh Art Show have helped to fund the project.

Local artist Monica-Shanta worked with the children to create the artwork.

Rebecca Davies, head of school, said: ‘We were thrilled to welcome Monica-Shanta who has collaborated closely with the school community to create a truly special piece of art.

‘The parents and children were part of the initial gathering of ideas and design and then all pupils in the school were involved in a two-day workshop.

‘The unveiling to parents and children was a huge success.’
