Teachers of youngsters taking part in an Oxford Playhouse Millennium project got special thanks from sponsors Debenhams.

"Goody bags" were handed out to staff at Thameside Primary School in Abingdon.

Over the last month they have been working with Oxford Playhouse professionals and the children getting ready for the staging of The Lighthouse Keeper's Lunch at the theatre last Friday. The school was one of five in the county chosen to take part in the Playhouse project, reaching out to youngsters.
