Keen young artists at Grange Community Primary School in Avocet Way are among those creating part of a tapestry to mark the event.

Nine schools in total will take part in the project and each will make a square, with Grange's marking Hook Norton Brewery's contribution to the area.

And the brewery has chipped in by sponsoring the pupils' efforts and arranging a visit to the school by some dray horses, which took place on February 1.

Once complete, the tapestry will be exhibited at a series of venues across Banburyshire before going on permanent display at Agnes Court, the news Oxford Cheshire Home.
