Youngsters at Heddington Primary School celebrated receiving a special award before they broke up for the summer holidays.

The school received the Happy Little Teeth award in recognition of their work to raise awareness of the importance of dental care.

The award, which has been run by the NHS for three years, is given to groups and schools who have completed a portfolio of work and a number of activities.

The award was originally offered to mother and toddler groups and has since been awarded to playgroups, nurseries and schools throughout the county.

Children at the school were given a certificate during their last week of term having completed the necessary work.
