Graham Burgess, the chair of Whitchurch Arts, will be creating a garden for the show along with Whitchurch Arts member Stephen Miller and other local artists Paul Harvey and Shelley Gibb.

The garden is one of several that depict the life of King Henry VIII, who ascended to the throne 500 years ago this year.  Graham’s garden is all about Katherine of Arragon.

Two children from Whitchurch Primary School have won the Christmas Card design competition put on by John Dollin Printing Services Ltd.

Alice Gibb’s design will be on the Christmas Cards given out by John Dollin; and Tolii Reeves-Hall’s design will be on the school’s card.

The children were invited to John Dollin last Wednesday to watch their drawing being made into the cards.  The general manager, John Young, showed the enthusiastic youngsters around the shop floor where they saw many kinds of posters, brochures and cards being made.

Congratulations to these young artistic winners!
