Young people are being urged to be creative during their holidays this year, with a summer school designed to bring out their artistic talents.

Greenfield School Community and Arts College, in Newton Aycliffe, will be offering a full programme of activities for children aged between eight and 17 during the first three weeks of the summer holidays.

Week-long workshops with artists will offer people the chance to take part in animation and film-making, sculpture, dance, visual arts and drama.

They will run between 10am and 3.30pm and places are limited, so bookings should be made soon.

Prices have not yet been confirmed, but some will be free.

Call Karen, Jo-Anne or Phil on (01325) 307147 or 379048 for more details.
