NEWLANDS and Kirkurd annual flower show took place on Saturday.

Anne Goodall from the event at the Newlands Centre told us: "Despite a reduced number of entries, the show was very well attended.

"It was encouraging to have so many children producing entries of vegetables and it was to everyone’s delight when Newlands School won the cup in this section.

"The show was opened and prizes presented by Karen Blissitt who, with her family, has supported the flower show for many years.

"Karen received a beautiful flower arrangement from Jon Adamson."
