CHILDREN at St Nicholas Primary School in Henstridge got all dressed up in Victorian costume to mark the school’s 150th anniversary.
Staff, pupils, governors and parents enjoyed the special Victorian Day, which also included traditional games, visitor sessions and a 150th birthday celebration cake – and the chance to look at the school’s 150-year-old logbook (pictured).

The youngest pupils made a time capsule and it was buried just outside the village hall on the new boules pitch.
The school has also celebrated the long service of the dedicated and hard-working Sandra
Raison, a member of staff for 35 years.
