I like everything about the group especially talking about things.

It can be hard work making things for my stage project. I like going to the open nights of exhibition to see everyone. The art tutors are really helpful. Also the art tutors are really knowledgeable in their area of art. My history with Action Space goes back to when I was 7 years old because they used to run childrens projects. I stopped that when I was about 11 years old then they put on to Shape which was an art group for people with disabilities. I was about 12 when I started that and stopped when I was about 14. They passed me back to Action Space when I was 16. Now I attend the South London Young People’s Group which I really like. I’ve made an animation about the pool in France. I’m currently doing my Arts Award through Action Space. For part A I’ve made an animation about the zoo in France and for part B I went to two chateaus in France. One was called Brissac and the other was called Usse, the castle of Sleepy Beauty. I’ve also researched Claude Monet for part C. For part D I showed people how to make a puppet.
