Summative comments from Somerville Primary School and Mosslands School:
"The chosen subject was a photographic project based around the Four Bridges area looking at industrial dereliction and industrial installations. It has been a very valuable experience, good for students and staff.
The project was to photograph the local environment, the park, and to use a selection of the childrens photographs to produce a large collage. The children achieved a very high standard of results and learned some basic photographic techniques which they will be able to use in the future. They were able to evaluate the results objectively. Ken had a patient understanding of the children".
