Thomas A Beckett pupils undertook a project to regenerate Worthing, producing maps,
diagrams, drawings, surveys and even planning proposals! The Programme Team went along to give a presentation to the Thomas A Beckett pupils as they prepared to commence work on their projects.
The course of their project was led by Mark Christmas teacher of Thomas a Beckett year 7, responsible for planning and organising the year 7 geography unit on regenerating areas of Worthing, from the Aquarena to Teville Gate.The Programme Team provided the pupils with copies of the Worthing Masterplan, Seafront Strategy and Public Realm
Strategy to set the parameters of sites within the town centre
boundary, which would also flag up some of the issues they needed to take into
consideration such as Conservation Areas, Listed Buildings, Views, Coastal
Defences, Heights Massing, Transport etc along with a presentation for schools.
The pupils produced written material for different audiences and presented their ideas through persuasive writing and illustations, and created some amazing projects, from the Worthing Aquarium, to the Worthing Snow Dome, to the colourful Egg Complex!
The Programme team were delighted to be part of this exciting project for the school, the pupils had put great dedication and time into each of their projects, and we are now proud to show off their efforts!
