We were asked by Thomas Fairchild Community School (Hackney, East London) to make a film following a fire which destroyed their school in July 2009. It follows a day in the life of the school, 24th Feb 2010, and shows that through adversity, they have found hope, strength and each other.
Shona Ferguson, their head teacher writes this:
On the 30th of July 2009 our school building was destroyed by fire.
Disaster, devastation, distress but hold on – nobody was hurt, nobody lost their home or their family, nobody lost their freedom.
