SCHOOLBOY James Tyrrell has come second in a national competition for primary school pupils.
The ten year old painted a picture of himself as an artist as part of the Amazing Me competition, sponsored by Skips crisps.
Children were asked to imagine themselves doing something amazing with their talent and then to write a story and paint a picture to illustrate it.
James was second in the 810 year age group, scooping £50 for himself and £1,000 in vouchers for his school at Hilperton.
The vouchers are to be used to buy new play equipment.
