• Mosaics are like doing a jigsaw puzzle but there are no wrong pieces.
• It was great to put my hands in the cement.
• I really liked smashing the tiles with the hammer.
• I loved getting mucky and not being told off.
• My best memory is that making the picture frame because it was my own ideas.
• I wish the day never ended.
• We got to have fun.
• I enjoyed getting messy and doing my mirror and picture frame. And what made it better was my Grandma helping me.
• I'm so proud of the mirror and picture frame I made.
• I was to be an Artist when I grow up.
• I liked spending time with my Mum and my friends.
• My best memory is looking at my finished mosaic.
• I've never on my artwork before (mosaic hopscotch) and played on it.

• I'm very proud of my mosaic, yes I could have done this or that differently but I would never have believed I could have produced this a few hours ago.
• My daughter was so proud of the mirror she had made she took it into school to show everybody, she's never done that before.
• It was great to see a piece of art that the whole school had taken part in and then watching the children finding their own sections.
• By the end of the day we got through 100 picture frames and made a mosaic hopscotch, I'm tired but smiling.
• It was funny when I saw my Sarah stand on her mosaic butterfly to prove how strong it was and then when Tommy (her younger brother) joined her I started to laugh.
• It made me smile watching the children finding the area they had worked own and then their friends showing them theirs.
• This course was a one off chance to spend the whole day with one of my daughters, with nothing to do but enjoy ourselves and learn as well.
• I forgot how much I enjoyed picking off glue from my fingers.
• It was great the ability to spend quality time with Emma as opposed to being with the whole family.
• It was fun watching the enjoyment that the children had in smashing the tiles.
• Seeing the children enjoying the work and being proud of what they made.
• I really enjoyed sitting in the sun and getting covered in cement with a good excuse.
• The whole day was fun, creative and educational.
• I'm now looking forward to taking skills away and producing own piece of work.
• I ended up laughing as I watched the children smashing tiles, it's not often seeing them given a hammer and allowed to use it.
• It was exciting; it gave me a great feeling of achievement.
• The work done this week will be of value to the school and everyone will be able to enjoy seeing it in the future.
