CHIRTON Primary took top prize in a gardening competition which displayed its entries in one of the most prominent positions possible in Devizes.

For the third year running Devizes In Bloom used the roundabout by The Green to show off entries in its schools competition.

This year the theme was SOS 4 Bugs and Beez and once again primary schools from the town and surrounding villages rose to the challenge.

For weeks the roundabout was brought to life by the entries which included everything from a life sized bee keeper to a wide range of mini gardens populated by insects.

Children from Chirton were among dozens who attended a presentation at the town hall to receive certificates for their work.

The Chirton bee garden entry took top prize but organiser Jan Champman from Devizes In Bloom was full of praise for all the schools who took part. Mayor Judy Rose made the presentations.
