Wish You Were Here …

The Isle of Wight Art takeover took off with a picture-perfect bang, ‘live’ from the Quay Arts.

Bestival festival guru Rob da Bank stopped to chat about his latest #lockin DJing gig … a bathroom shindig complete with sparkly cape. We should all have been there!

Local teacher Graham Andre popped in to talk about his work on gender equality in schools, positive discrimination, and shared some laughs and love.

Fellow Isle of Wight educator Richard Simpson led us into a dream about great books and eating tarantulas. 

There was a beautiful breeze.
