Pupils at St Paul's School in Shepton Mallet had a busy run-up to their end of the summer term.

This included a special service in the Parish Church when they said a fond farewell to the town's rector Rev Liz Smith.

All the pupils were given gifts of books from the church and St. Paul's Partnership.

Special cups were awarded: the one for Perseverance was awarded to Taia Marks, and the one for Care, Courtesy and Willingness was presented to Abigail Wheatley.

In recognition of their contribution to sport at St Paul's, the two Ashford Awards were also presented.

In Upper School, the trophy went to Corey Taylor and in Lower School to Mica Clarke.

The school's last event was an emotional Leavers' Assembly with the Year 6 pupils and parents on the last day of the school year.

Head teacher Chris Arnold said: "The children put on an excellent final production called Do you Remember the First Time?

"There was much laughter and tears from everyone and we raised £62.84 towards our Mathematics project.

"We wish all the children well for the future at their new schools."
