THE royal wedding provided the inspiration for Easter bonnets made by the children of Smiley Faces pre-school at the annual parade organised by Matthew Blanthorn, the reception class teacher at Southwell Primary School on Portland.

Seventy children from pre-schools in the Southwell area of Portland took part wearing a splendid variety of bonnets and, after the judging by Hilda Swinney and Lucy Hornby, they paraded through every classroom in the school.

First place in each section went to Ollie Skinley from Jumping Beans, Eva Tacey from Sunbeams, Harvey Bellows from Smiley Faces and Lexie Pascoe from Southwell School’s reception class.
