FOUR young writers have won prizes in a competition to feature children’s entries in the brand new official Exmouth Guide 2011.

Ella Klepka, Ross Coldrick, Codie Preece and C-J West, from Exeter Road Community Primary School, all wrote 25-word winning entries.

They described what they like best about their town, and their words are featured in all 20,000 copies of the guide.

Prizes included a goody bag from the Donkey Sanctuary for Ella, a family ticket to Pecorama for Ross, tickets for a show at the Pavilion for Codie and a family ticket to The World of Country Life for C-J.

Beverley Alderson, deputy head at the school, said: “We did a whole school topic on why Exmouth is special, and thoroughly explored all areas of the town.

“The children gained a real insight into how lucky they are to live in such a fantastic resort.”

The presentation took place in a full school assembly.

Copies of the Exmouth Guide 2011 are available from the Exmouth Tourist Information Centre and in many shops and businesses around the town.
