AN art week at Casterton County Primary School in Burnley was designed to paint pupils a picture of artistic life.

Different artist and styles of music, including reggae, Salsa, classical, jazz and opera, were examined by children.

Local ceramics artist Peter Hall helped children make a mural, musician David Wilson gave drum lessons and Burnley dance school Sandersons gave lessons on street dance.

The week was organised by arts coordinator at the school, Gail Barnes and music coordinator Sharon Pate.
