Diweddarwyd 31/05/2016

Independent Living students from Gower College Swansea have taken third prize at this year's National Eisteddfod

The students - Nyle Bowen, Laura Evans, Kerri Green, Stephanie Harris, Joshua Jones, Amy Lewis, Abigail Maguire, Elle Wilkins and Jessica Williams - devised their piece of work around the theme of 'belonging'.

"We looked at different kinds of belonging, such as being part of a class or being part of a group of friends within Gower College Swansea," says lecturer Christine Wilson. "With the help of their three excellent support workers, the students collaborated on their piece, which shows background images of the college with each student adding a Zentangled hand to represent them linking together into a circle."

This artwork will now be displayed at the Urdd National Eisteddfod, a touring festival which will be held in Flintshire between 30 May – 4 June.
