@BoneheadsPage Ever fancy coming into a high school in Wigan to talk about your time in Oasis and your photography?

Students had real success experimenting with typography using Britpop song lyrics. @MicrodotCreativ @oasis @Britpopmemories @britpoprevival

Just because we start the new year in another lockdown doesn’t mean we can’t celebrate great work. Here’s Connors photography from home exploring the theme of “Messy”. #lockdownschool #messy #gcsephotography

We need to celebrate Rubie’s BritPop sketchbook. Making a sketchbook and showing the journey of a project is a skill in itself and here are 6 double pages all beautifully constructed. Excellence all the way. #sketchbook #gcseart #britpop #blur #oasis #90s #upholland #westlancs

Year 10 have created a range of amazing double exposure portraits using their own imagery and layers on photoshop. Here are some amazing outcomes! @UHHSchool #portrait #portraitphotography #gcsephotography #creativity #upholland #westlancs #gcse

Year 7 have been exploring the design work of Margaret Calvert and her road signs in Design History. Using Calvert's Signing System, students have designed their own signs to enforce a one way system within corridors. Very bold and effective! ⛔🚫➡️#margaretcalvert #dt #ks3 #UHHS

Last night the Art department were marking folders and felt Erins intro to her cityscapes book deserved some 👏🏻 plus it makes us want to go on holiday! Beautifully painted with neat crisp lines and flat colour. #painting #portfolio #mediterranean #colour #holidays #fineart

Some of Y11 worked on sketching this morning, Amy produced this fab A3 mono print on brown craft paper of a landscape to support her prep work. #sketching #monoprint
