School students have been learning new skills at their local college’s new construction centre and hair and beauty salons.

The year 7, 8 and 9 students, from Saltash.net Community School, spent a week at Cornwall College Saltash.

The hair and beauty group learnt beauty techniques including how to do facials, applying make-up professionally and how to prepare their nails.

They worked on mood boards and searched for inspiration from magazines before presenting their finished results in a photo shoot at the end of the week.
