Flag honour for local schoolgirl

WINNER: Neve, pictured with Mayor of Solihull, Cllr Flo
Nash, and her parents.

AN ARTY schoolgirl has been flying the flag for North Solihull...
Neve Russell, a Year 6 pupil at Marston Green Juniors, had won a borough-wide contest to design a bit of artwork to celebrate the Commonwealth.
Having impressed judges with her design, she was picked to give the order to raise a special flag at Solihull Council House.
A number of dignitaries from around the region were there for the ceremony, held in honour of Commonwealth Day.
The event takes place every March and celebrates the bonds between the group of nations, many of which were once part of the British Empire.
