Christmas cards at C.E.I.P Manuel Vidal Portela

  • Manuel Moldes our local artist painted Pontevedra , our town in some of their works.

    We started our Art research to inspire our cards visitting our town .

    Stone historical buildings, statues, gardens...an endless list of possibilities!

    Pontevedra has been a source of inspiration for great Artists. Writers, Painters, Architects...etc

    Students from around the world come to study at The Fine Arts Faculty of the University of Vigo located in Pontevedra.

    It was very difficult to select only one piece of art as we thought our town has lot of treasures we wanted to share with our partners.

    So, we decided to design 18 different cards at least.....one for each classroom at our school.

    We took photos, and we selected different "works of Art" which we decorated with Christmas lights to give our creations the aspect of real Christmas cards.

    Every class worked cooperitavely to make a big postcard as you could see on the videocall images , and we exhibited them on the school corridors.

    Families and visitors expressed their admiration for the work performed.

    Then we printed them in a smaller size to be sent to our partners, our town Major and some local newspapers.

    Every pupil and teacher, received a copy of the cards they had made so that families could know our work for the Project .

    We prepared the cards for our partners we hope arrive safely to their destination. If you don´t receive yours, please do not doubt to ask us for a new copy!

    We know our Major loved our work and we´ll be on newspapers again soon.....

    Our partners Christmas cards arrival was a big event at our school.

    All the pupils and families could watch them at the school main entrance.

    A special photo call session was made to cover this event.
