Adidas Spezial Workshop

Today some of our children went to Darwen to take part in an Adidas Spezial Workshop to celebrate 10 years of the Darwen designer's company. The children were chosen due to their interest in the arts and creativity shown in art lessons. The children designed their own trainers and looked at the types of materials they would use to create their trainer. They developed an understanding of the processes involved in the design and manufacturing stages of the Adidas Spezial brand. The children were then treated to a guided tour of the museum and saw some of the brand's products from the last decade. Some of the trainers on show are worth hundreds of pounds. There was even a pair specially designed for Liam Gallagher of which only two pairs were ever made! The museum is open in Darwen town centre for the next two weeks if you would like to visit with your family. Entrance is free.
