Pupils at Sharples High School soaked up a carnival atmosphere as they had fun in the sun. Attractions included funfair rides, a chocolate fountain, free ice creams and for some reason sponge the teacher proved popular with the pupils. The special treat was laid on for all pupils, who because of the pandemic have missed out on so much. Every year group had a chance to enjoy the fete in the safety of their bubbles. Caroline Molyneux, deputy headteacher, said: “It was a well-deserved treat for the pupils in what has been a difficult year. “They haven’t been able to go on school trips as they normally would so we wanted to put something special on for them as they have worked hard when they have been at home during lockdown.”

Timber Windows in Hart Street was one of more than 25 businesses judged for this year’s contest, which had the theme of “Christmas in Henley”.
The business has only been open for a year so this was the first time that it had taken part.
The winning display featured a golden nutcracker figurine on a boat full of gifts and was designed by the shop’s marketing team.
“They did a fantastic job it’s very Christmassy,” said Lynette Tweedy, a showroom assistant at the store. “I wanted the boat and the river because we’re right next to the River Thames.” The Helen & Douglas House charity shop in Duke Street, which won the competition last year, was runner-up with its winter wonderland display.
