Artist workshop at Bovington Academy Primary pupils have been taught how to appreciate the beauty of waste art following a workshop with Dorset artist Darrell Wakelam. Mr Wakelam spent time showing talented Year 5 and Year 6 students at Bovington Academy how to create relief sculptures of a phoenix rising from the ashes in a symbolic nod to the subject of renewal. The session was organised by Samantha Armstrong, art lead at the Wareham-based school, who said: "We were lucky enough to have Darryl on site with a group of gifted and talented Year 5 and 6 pupils. "He spent the day with us developing relief sculptures of the phoenix, as a nod to renewal in terms of the phoenix being born from the ashes of fire.
