Welton Primary are Maypole Winners
Welton Primary School Maypole Team were victorious at the Midsomer Norton Town Show winning the double plait trophy as well as the Best Overall category.
This year the team has been able to practise outside thanks to the generous donation from the PTFA to fund the new all weather speaker.
Maypole club leader, Mrs Stevens, commented: "The maypole team is predominantly KS2 but this year we have opened it up to year 2 pupils and as a team, the children have welcomed some of
our Reception children to join them in the more simple dances. The team itself consisted of both boys and girls - a number of whom had enjoyed the taster session so much during sports week, that they had asked to join the club. Enjoyment really was key to our success and many onlookers commented on how much fun was happening in our group. I was especially proud of the support that the team showed each other when we had the odd minor hiccup (to be expected) but still managed to carry on. We look forward to taking part again next year."
