Bristol Festival of School Sport, March 2009

Tuesday, April 14th, 2009

Tim Crawley, eShed co-ordinator at Watershed, and Patrick Young, eShed member, worked with a group of Young Ambassadors and Media Students from Ashton Park School to film the Bristol Festival of School Sport at Combe Dingle Sports Complex in Bristol and they’ll edit the material during a workshop session to be held at Watershed. We’re looking at different possibilities for screening the completed film, but it will probably be available on this site – we’ll post news here when it’s ready.
