I AM writing on behalf of the pupils and staff at Redgrove School to thank the organisers for providing our pupils with the opportunity of visiting the Hanbury Steam Fair recently.

As well as having the opportunity to visit the numerous events and attractions our pupils were particularly delighted with the experience of driving one of the steam traction engines.

The fair has grown into a large and prestigious event, however, it still retains a friendly atmosphere and it is pleasing to see it forging links with the local community including our school.

We hope that this event continues to grow in size and popularity.
