A FEATURE of the Dalgety Show each year is support from the region's schools. School children work hard to produce beautiful artwork, which adorn the walls of the Dalgety Showground pavilion.

The pavilion is a much-loved part of show day. Dalgety Show publicity officer, Annie O'Keeffe praised the efforts of local school children in helping transform the pavilion into a wonderful, creative space.

"The amount of artwork that comes in from our local schools really does make the pavilion an incredibly special place to visit each year with the committee year on year enjoying the contribution made to make this large space fill with colour," Mrs O'Keeffe said.

"Not a year has gone by when one of the committee remarks 'now it feels like show day' when all the beautiful creations are up and ready to be on show for parents and friends to marvel at.

"We send our thanks for all our local schools, especially our teachers who not only assist their students with ideas and motivation, but year on year, they make sure their students get to highlight their drawings, paintings and writing for parents and friends to enjoy in our pavilion."

In the pavilion, there is the fine arts category, where local painters, sculptures and artists are able to showcase their talents.
