PUPILS have been exploring different cultures and promoting them to tourists as part of a school competition.
Year 7 pupils at FitzWimarc School, Rayleigh, created advertising and marketing companies to run campaigns to try to attract tourists to their chosen countries.
The eight teams were promoting Italy, France, China, India, Mexico, Kenya, Japan and Egypt respectively, with a TV advert and a display.
Teams dressed up in outfits typical of their chosen country and the chairman of Rochford District Council, Jim Grey, went along to announce the winning team.
