\n Davitt College\u2019s 5th Year Art students have put design thinking directly into practice by transforming one of the school\u2019s central courtyards with striking artistic flair. Embracing the core ethos of our Creative Schools journey, the students tackled the space as an architectural and visual design challenge \u2013 taking it from initial concept sketches to a vibrant, colourful mural that brightens the entire campus.\n <\/p>\n\n

\n Their hard work, generosity, and creative energy have been warmly praised across the school community. Special thanks go to Art teacher Ms. Joanne Hopkins and Creative Schools Coordinator Ms. Veronica Morley for guiding the project, as well as Albany Castlebar for generously sponsoring paint supplies. Phase 1 is complete, and Phase 2 will resume in September as this inspirational learning space continues to evolve!\n <\/p>\n <\/div>\n\n \n \n \n
