PUPILS at a Worcester primary school have been making a mess this week - but they have their headteacher's full support.

The Key Stage 1 pupils at Gorse Hill Primary School, Hollymount Road, have been getting creative with the help of Worcester Arts Workshop.

The children, aged five to seven, have got stuck in to a number of projects, including finger painting, sculpting and Aboriginal art.

"They normally work with older children, but we thought it would be nice to work with younger children to capture their imaginations," said headteacher Robert Flynn.

"They've got covered in paint, but they've produced some nice work. The workshop team is very good - they're very well organised, prepare very carefully and know exactly what they're doing.

"The children are really enjoying it."
