Art students in Year 8 have enjoyed a visit to The Faith Museum, the latest attraction at Auckland Castle.

The Museum explores how faith, belief and religion have shaped lives and communities in Britain throughout history. The exhibits can help inspire young artists in their creative work as they begin to consider different attitudes to faith and transfer their ideas into their sketch books on their return to school.

King James has formed a partnership with The Auckland Project which gives subject teachers access to the attractions in the town from Auckland Castle itself to the Spanish Gallery and viewing tower.
