Papplewick art department enjoyed a visit from local artist Marc Chaumeton when he worked with year 8 boys during their current project of painting orchids.  Marc who is from Farnham studied at Camden Arts Centre, Central School of Art and Design, and Brighton Art School has worked in the design and advertising industry has now wound down his commercial work and now only works with a small set of clients so that he can concentrate on his painting and drawing. 

The art department at Papplewick is strong and regularly gains scholarships to top UK public schools and Headmaster, Tom Bunbury said " It was a great experience for the boys to welcome Marc into the art department, and they learnt much from him to help further with their work."
