Over 50 Young Creatives arrived at the Abbey to take part in the School’s Young Creatives Competition 2023 at the end of November. The competition, expanded this year to take in Fine Art, Textiles and Photography, and from ages 11 – 18, saw applicants from as far away as Surrey and Essex arrive at the Abbey to take their places in one of seven categories, each with a £100 prize pot for the winners! The applicants, shortlisted from over 100 entrants, waited nervously for the results after our three independent Judges had run the rule over the wonderful work on display. Our eventual winners were Lola Claridge Bates (Claverham) KEY STAGE 3 ART, Madison Cabral (BHASVIC) GCSE ART, Leo Omusi (Mid Kent College) A LEVEL ART, Elizabeth Duckett (Battle Abbey School) GCSE TEXTILES, Amy Miller (Battle Abbey School) A LEVEL TEXTILES, Fabian Gooding (Sutton Valence) GCSE PHOTOGRAPHY, Ella Hancock (Uckfield College) A LEVEL PHOTOGRAPHY
