CREATIVE pupils took part in a day of art, and got their hands dirty by making a giant sculpture at their school.
The art day, which is always a popular event at Therfield First School, gave youngsters the chance to use a wide variety of resources, including bark, twigs, sawdust, and wood shavings.
Pupils also used materials such as wool, cotton, silk and rafia to create a landscape of the countryside in which they live and come to school.
Cambridge sculptor CJ Mahony also joined the fun and games and helped the pupils.
