A STALYBRIDGE school has added Easter cheer to the town’s train station with a dazzling art display.
Trinity Christian School, on Birbeck Street, was recruited by TransPennine Express (TPE) to brighten up the facility.
And the 28 artists from years three to six have not disappointed, using their artistic talents to combine the themes of trains and Easter in a range of pieces that is now on display.
The pupils presented their creations on Thursday, April 3 after the project, which also taught them more about the local railway and how stations play a vital role in connecting communities.
They will remain on display throughout the Easter holidays and as a thank you for their hard work and creativity, each pupil was presented with an Easter egg.
Andrew Watkins, community and development Manager at TPE, said: “We are delighted to showcase the fantastic artwork created by pupils from Trinity Christian School at Stalybridge station.
“It’s wonderful to see how they’ve creatively combined Easter themes with our railway heritage. The display adds a welcoming and uplifting touch to the station, brightening the journey for our customers.”
Alison Purnell, primary art teacher at Trinity Christian School, added: “Year 3-6 pupils created vibrant artwork that combined the themes of trains and Easter, using a variety of mixed media techniques.
“From mono-printing to free-hand designs, their pieces beautifully conveyed the Easter message of hope and love, capturing the spirit of renewal and connection through creative expression.”
