100 take part in traditional
Easter race to top of Brent Knoll
 Dozens
of youngsters took part in the annual Easter run to the top of
Brent Knoll on
Saturday morning (March 28th).
The
annual race is held from outside the village's primary school
and this year's event saw almost 100 children and parents making
their way to the summit of the Knoll and back.
Becky
Boston, chairman of the school's PTA, told Burnham-On-Sea.com:
"They each collect a numbered lolly stick at the top of the
Knoll and then return to the school where they claim an Easter
egg."
This
year's run was won by Beck Bishop and Paris Hazelton-Cavill (pictured),
with Rebecca Thomas in third.
The
event coincided with the school's Easter fayre, when a number
of stalls and attractions were set up in the playground. There
was also a visit by a Burnham fire engine and Burnham's Light
of Elizabeth rescue hovercraft.
