PUPILS at Marlborough School were given a day off lessons in 1986 to learn how to be healthy. Health Promotion Day was designed to teach them that health is not just about illness, but about complete physical and mental wellbeing. Pupil Lisa Allen is pictured at the alcohol abuse display.
The middle picture dates from 1982 when the town hosted a Festival of Dragons. Edward Prosser, who had travelled from Wales, is seen about to devour a fan. About 2,000 people packed the streets as the dragons assembled in front of the Town Hall and Bear Hotel.
The Phoenix Youth Club needed money for repairs, central heating and more sports equipment, and three members set off on a sponsored bike ride to Coventry in 1986 to raise it. Left to right in the bottom picture are Nigel Moss, 16, Kim Beadle, 17, and Paul Dobbin, 17.
