Children from Wellow School had some of their work displayed at St Margaret’s Church in the village to commemorate the church’s 800th anniversary.
The children helped ensure the church was in tip-top condition ready for the launch of the important anniversary.
The children’s work ranges from watercolour sketches to news articles, poetry, commemorative coins and even ‘Horrible History’ facts all celebrating an aspect of the church’s history.
Kerry Somers, history leader at Wellow, said: “This has been a great opportunity for our children to learn about their local history.
“The children have enjoyed learning about the church, and the fact their work will be on display in St Margaret’s this year gave them a real purpose to their learning.
“They are rightly very proud to have their work on display for the community to see and it has been fantastic to hear the children enthusiastically sharing their knowledge with each other.”
Jake Palmer, Year 5, said: “I am proud that five of my pieces of work are on display. My paintings of the church are particularly good. I hope lots of people will come to see them.”
