Rainforest Scene
A tropical rainforest is flourishing near Liphook but not because of the soggy summer weather.
The colourful scene, complete with hippos, parrots and crocodiles, has taken shape thanks to the pupils of Hollycombe Primary School.
They have spent a week painting a huge mural on the wall of the schools inner courtyard.
With the help of local artist Frances Vigars, they worked in small groups to paint the background, then added a variety of jungle wildlife.
The project is part of a national scheme to encourage young people to work alongside professional artists in schools.
