Low Road and Windmill Music Federation hosts first-ever art exhibition

On July 9, 2025, the Low Road and Windmill Music Federation held its first-ever art exhibition on school grounds, showcasing artwork from every pupil in Reception through Year 6. The event, led by art lead Morag Watson, featured splatter paintings, photography, and other works, with local photographer Elaine Goddard announcing winners of a photography competition and local artist Paul Fretwell contributing a painting. The exhibition was open to students, parents, governors, and the community, and was hailed as a resounding success.

This event matters because it highlights the importance of integrating visual arts into primary education, fostering creativity and community engagement. By including all pupils and inviting local artists, the federation elevated the role of the arts within the curriculum and set a precedent for annual exhibitions, potentially inspiring similar initiatives in other schools.
