STUDENTS at Shebbear College will be able to get a lot more creative at the start of the next academic year

A new creative skills centre will complement the existing art department. Offering a wider range of creative studies and activities, five newly refurbished workshops and studios will enable students to partake in art, pottery, ceramics, textiles and fashion, photography, sculpture, design and technology.

The centre will be fully operational for the beginning of the new term in September, and is part of an ongoing comprehensive development plan for the college.
