Three very talented artists from St Mary’s School who created lovely pictures to celebrate this year’s Christmas theme of the 12 days of Christmas came together to officially switch the town’s Christmas lights on at a secret location in Tetbury,
writes Kevin Painter. Councillor Gary O’Connor gave the traditional countdown for the children to press the button and was heralded with a joyous cry as lights all over the towns homes came to life. So at 6pm, the children pressed the magic button. The children were then given a Christmas box of chocolates, by the deputy mayor Peter Coleman.
