CREATIVE students from Bolton have produced dozens of pieces of art for an exhibition about the Holocaust.

Ten pupils from Sharples School took part in the extra-curricular project, to commemorate Holocaust memorial day on Monday -- with the work on public display at the Festival Hall, Bolton, until Monday.

Lisa Baker, the teacher responsible for organising the project, said: "The project has had a big impact on the pupils right from the start. There have been some outstanding pieces of art. We've looked at how members of society were affected by the Holocaust, from the Jewish people, through to gypsies and the disabled."
