Get in Touch
We are working with Augmented Reality, 3D scanning and printing, re-purposing and designing with Little Bits and Makey Makey, creating films and animations with comic life, vine and other stuff. Pulling it all together in a virtual world the children and parents can down load, find the AR codes in the community.
In Visual Arts we have been exploring the theme of Our Community. The children have been working with ceramics, upcycled art, screen printing and sculpture. The end of term exhibition opened to the friends, families and school community.
The project concluded its first year with a focus on performing arts: voice work, dance, drama and electronic music composition. Every Child Is An Artist develops the skills and innate ability of children, led by practicing artists at the forefront of their disciplines.

Every Child Is An Artist

A nationally ground breaking programme to develop the skills and innate artistic ability of every child in Oasis Academy Hobmoor. Our aim is to develop the people, skills, ability, opportunities and space needed for art and creativity to flourish in school over the next three years. Bringing Amazing Artists into school to work with the children we will create new works of art for the community. We are working with Year 1 through to Year 6.


The whole project is delivered by Mercurial’s team of artists, who make and present work professionally. We are experienced in communicating our arts practice in educational settings and this is what enables us to really stretch the children’s imagination and ability.

We Make Vision Building Anthems

Encouraging Aspiration, Supporting Creativity

Our Anthem programme is part of a holistic vision to encourage children’s creativity and aspiration within their schools.  Much more than the the production of a new school song and music video, the Anthem with Oasis Academy Hobmoor is a project that built and reflected a vision for the 2014 generation at the School..

The Process

Over a series of days we worked with a group of children to explore how their school was changing since becoming an academy and what their aspirations, reflections and desires are for their new school. Explored through creative writing, poetry and song lyrics this steering group help to shape and collect a feeling for the new school.

Writing the lyrics

Opening up the task of generating the song to the whole school we set up a Lyric Lottery, where all the children submitted their ideas and writings for the lyrics. These were collated and developed in to the verses and chorus in collaboration with a songwriting group of children.

Making the film

The children and staff were keen to have a unique look to the film that represented and shows off Oasis Academy Hobmoor, and feature a playful narrative. We developed a script for En’Light’en that reflects the childrens humour and sense of play. Through the process we ran a series of light painting workshops with the children developing the mood and feel for the character which have been incorporated into the final film.
