THREE schoolchildren from Whalley Primary School have won a police competition to educate villagers in 'Keeping their village tidy'.

Children from Year 2 were asked to design a poster after PCSO Jason Taylor visited the school to talk about personal responsibility in keeping the world a clean and tidy place.

PCSO Jason Taylor has forged strong links with the school and is no stranger to the children.

The three winning designs will be made into posters that can be displayed around the village to encourage villagers and visitors to "Bin it!"

The winners are: First Prize; Sarah Houldsworth; Second Prize: George Gibson; Third Prize; Anna Shaw. They all receive a HMV voucher.
