SPECIAL EVENTS Success at the Agricultural Show Miss Thompson and her champions gardeners First Prize Winners in the schools terrarium section. The Sir Edwin Leather Trophy is a awarded annually to the primary school with most points at the agricultural show, and it was a proud moment for Cavendish, when we heard that this year, in conjuction with the Junior Department, we were the winners. Of course, most of the credit for this must go to Miss Thompson and her gardeners who did extremely well in a variety of classes again this year. However, we must not forget Mrs. Strong and her terrarium builders who won a first in their class, and all the individual children who entered and won prizes independently, and whose subsequent points all contributed to winning the trophy. Sir Edwin came in person to present the trophy which was received by representatives from both the Preparatory and Junior departments, accompanie d by Miss Thompson and Miss Armstrong, and after an amusing speech, the trophy was duly handed over.
