Is this the best school corridor in the world? I would have loved this in my school when I was young! "Beatrix Meadows" is a large painted mural tribute to the brilliant Beatrix Potter's "Peter Rabbit" series. The idea was to transform a dull magnolia corridor in Anfield Primary School into a wonderful, bright fantasy world for the pupils. Two themes run throughout the huge artwork. As well as the famous Beatrix Potter characters, the murals reflects the changing of the 4 seasons and the flora and fauna of the British countryside as it alters through the year. A total of 18 characters are included for the children to find. There are 7 mural scenes depicted across the corridor: 1. The Winter scene. Mrs Tiggy-Winkle and Mrs Tittlemouse doing an early spring clean. Pine trees, Snowdrops, Holly, Winter Aconite, Winter Heather. 2. The 1st Spring scene: Beatrix Potter watches over Beatrix Meadows where Peter Rabbit and Flopsy are tucking into some characters. Cherry Blossom tree. 3. The 2nd Spring scene: Tom Cat plays with a ball of wool on a wheelbarrow, watched by a tweeting robin. Daffodils, Dandelions, Bluebells, Spring Starflowers. 4. The 3rd Spring scene: Mr Jeremy Fisher enjoying a lazy day, reading his newspaper by a cool, clear pond. Weeping Willow, Sedge Rushes. 5. The 1st Summer scene: Jemima Puddle-duck, Timmy Willie and Johnny Town Mouse enjoy a summers day, surrounded by wild flowers. A cheeky, Peter Rabbit is hiding in the watering can. Foxgloves, Poppies, Violets, Strawberries, Gypsy Grass and Dandelions. 6. The 2nd Summer scene. Mr Tod goes on his daily promenade but should be cautious of the pot holes! Diggory Diggory Delvet is working hard to fix the road, under the supervision of Tommy Brock the Badger. Elm Tree, foxgloves, dandelions. 7. The Autumn scene. Squirrel Nutkins and his friend are running around looking for autumn nuts and berries as an owl swoops overhead. Horse Chestnut Tree. This was painted in the summer of 2020 and took 3-4 weeks in total. Anfield Primary School is located in the shadow of Liverpool FC's Anfield Stadium. It was painted by Liverpool artist, Paul Curtis.
