Y7 Creative Industries Pathway 2025/26

35 year 7 students have completed the first year of the Creative Industries Pathway. We have musicians, actors, dancers, gymnasts, artists, magicians, writers, DJs, composers, designers, photographers and more and the students have shown exemplary engagement, enthusiasm and initiative. They have taken part in workshops with Bristol Hippodrome, Aardman Animations and BIMM Music Institute, as well as developing their own portfolios in an area of personal creative interest for an exhibition exploring the theme of 'What does creativity mean to me?'. Students will be invited to continue the programme in year 8, alongside a new year 7 cohort.

Community involvement opportunity: We have recently had a parent volunteer lead a fantastic workshop based on their profession. If you, or anybody you know, works in any of the creative industries mentioned above (or others!) and would be happy to provide a short workshop or work together to arrange a visit, please email natasha.bennetts@olympustrust.co.uk to discuss.
