Our design was inspired by our love of the coast and enjoyment of pirate characters in many story books.
A class was asked to produce a design that could be used on the trail and one was selected to adapt. There is a group at school called the Mini Vinnies. They helped to work on this design, with other children too, who really enjoy art. Inspiration was taken from pirate characters in story books and research was done online to collect images of pirate patches, flags, anchors, jewellery and pirate buttons. The aim was to create a friendly looking pirate rabbit that we could fall in love with, with lots of little, interesting details and accessories to notice.
