Students from Cardinal Hume School, Wrekenton have worked with Creative Partnerships to develop a Graphic Novel based on their research into the history of East Gateshead - the work is complex, brooding and gothic presented in a Graphic Novel Format. Students identified the often troubled relationship between the dark histories and those posed by contemporary society.
