A PRESTIGIOUS prize has been handed out once again to Romsey students who created depictions of their town's history.
This year's Warner Prizes were awarded on Monday, October 14, in Crosfield Hall.
Each year, both Romsey secondary schools are invited to submit entries by Year 7 and 8 pupils about the history of the town.
Unfortunately, this year The Romsey Academy did not take part, but judges were treated to some extremely imaginative and well-researched projects from The Mountbatten School.

Their Year 8's were excellent on the subject of the Industrial Revolution and its impact on Romsey and the Year 7's were enlightening about the Abbey.
Entries included imagined historic letters and diaries, guidebooks, display panels, games and even a t-shirt.
There were also cash prizes for the best local history projects and special awards for the most artistically presented histories.
Thanks to the staff, pupils and parents of Moutbatten School, the judges, Richard Cole, Donna Hutson and Nick Hutson and the "organiser" Jennifer Adams.
