Pair's art work wins special day

Julie said: 'I thought it would be nice to offer local children the chance to go to Marwell Zoo in a limousine and support the Marwell Zoological Society. The children submitted a total of 23 drawings and paintings, all of which were very well done and very colourful.
'Judging would have been difficult. So, I decided to draw the winning names out of a hat.'
The entries were displayed in the window of Dillistone and Wraights until yesterday.
