Early Years Foundation Stage pupils and after school club KIA youngsters put together the straw characters as part of Whissendine’s Feast Week celebrations.

Class teacher Tania Comber said: “We used the Julia Donaldson book ‘The Scarecrows Wedding’ as inspiration and created Harry O’Hay and Betty O’Barley on their wedding day.”
