THE Louvre or Tate Modern it might not be, but children enjoyed their very own art gallery just as much.

Pupils at Grimley and Holt CE Primary School, Grimley, displayed their masterpieces in their school hall during a special show.

They mounted and framed their paintings, hung them in the hall and then allowed parents to buy their favourites with guidance from a catalogue.

High standard

Youngsters at neighbouring St Bartholomew's Pre-School also took part in the event.

"This was an excellent way to celebrate the high standard of our pupils' art work and gave our children's families a great opportunity to see the standard of work throughout the school," said Grimley and Holt headteacher Sheila Crawford.

Funds raised by the event went back into the school's coffers.
