Children's career caterpillar installed at Saumarez Manor

Peter De Saumarez and Sian Jones from the Youth Commission.

Guernsey's Youth Commission has got children to get creative and think about their futures.

The Youth Commission has attended various events, youth clubs and schools this year, inviting children to paint a stone with what they want to be when they are older.

The team hope the project will continue to stimulate positive conversation about growing up.

About 60 have been placed at Saumarez Manor in the shape of a caterpillar.

Sian from the Youth Commission says the art installation will be added to and eventually evolve into a butterfly.

“It’s lovely seeing what young people want to be when they grow up, from being an artist or a butcher to being braver - a young boy said he wanted to be like his dad.

Our hope is that we can encourage positive inspiring conversations at home and give young people a free fun activity to do.”
