The project explored themes of legacy, growth, and community through the shared symbol of a tree. Students worked alongside the artist to develop individual elements, which were then combined into a large, permanent collaborative Wire tree sculpture. The process encouraged creativity, reflection, and teamwork, while allowing students to express personal ideas within a collective outcome. Cross\u2011year collaboration strengthened peer relationships and fostered a positive, inclusive working environment. From initial concept to final installation, students were actively involved at every stage of the project. The completed Legacy Tree now serves as a lasting visual record of student voice, creativity, and collaboration within the school community.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Teacher: Claire Lennon<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Artist: Glenn Gibson<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery has-nested-images columns-default is-cropped wp-block-gallery-1 is-layout-flex wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"768\" height=\"1024\" data-id=\"9342\" src=\"https:\/\/www.creativeengagement.ie\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/image0-2-1-768x1024.jpeg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-9342\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"986\" height=\"1024\" data-id=\"9335\" src=\"https:\/\/www.creativeengagement.ie\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/image1-2-986x1024.jpeg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-9335\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.creativeengagement.ie\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/image1-2-980x1017.jpeg 980w, https:\/\/www.creativeengagement.ie\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/image1-2-480x498.jpeg 480w\" sizes=\"(min-width: 0px) and (max-width: 480px) 480px, (min-width: 481px) and (max-width: 980px) 980px, (min-width: 981px) 986px, 100vw\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"768\" height=\"1024\" data-id=\"9343\" src=\"https:\/\/www.creativeengagement.ie\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/image2-2-1-768x1024.jpeg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-9343\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"768\" height=\"1024\" data-id=\"9336\" src=\"https:\/\/www.creativeengagement.ie\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/image3-2-768x1024.jpeg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-9336\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"768\" height=\"1024\" data-id=\"9339\" src=\"https:\/\/www.creativeengagement.ie\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/image4-768x1024.jpeg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-9339\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"768\" height=\"1024\" data-id=\"9344\" src=\"https:\/\/www.creativeengagement.ie\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/image5-1-768x1024.jpeg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-9344\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"768\" height=\"1024\" data-id=\"9337\" src=\"https:\/\/www.creativeengagement.ie\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/image6-768x1024.jpeg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-9337\"\/><\/figure>\n<\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Legacy Tree Project, led by artist Glenn Gibson, was a collaborative Creative Engagement Project involving Transition Year and 5th Year Art students.
