A family in Niton marked Isle of Wight Day in a unique way – by sweeping the board at the Parish Council’s art competition for children.
Amelia Mumford, 7, won £25 first prize for her drawing of a fox and her brothers, Sam and Ben, were both runners-up, winning £10 each. Island children’s author and illustrator, Marianne Su-Yin, judged the competition.
The Mumfords were presented with their prizes and certificates by Chairman of Niton and Whitwell Parish Council, Councillor Jon Boileau-Goad at the library in Niton on Isle of Wight Day.
Organiser Councillor Janice Young said:
“Our judge was full of praise for the skill and detail which the children had put into their drawings.”
