Art experts have been sharing their skills with students at a Canvey school.

The creative arts week at Furtherwick Park School in Furtherwick Road, Canvey, saw students from all years undertake a series of workshops to develop their skills.

The youngsters tried their hand at graffiti painting and circus skills through to learning dance steps and percussion.

Headteacher Chris Richardson, said: "The week was a great success thanks to the commitment of our external experts who worked so hard with our students to help make the programme run so smoothly and effectively."
