SELWYN TIMES<br />

The famous and very popular Malvern<br />

A & P Show is on again this Saturday and as<br />

always will offer a true country agricultural<br />

and farming experience.<br />

This year’s show features sheep, wool,<br />

poultry and pigeons, horses and show<br />

jumping as well as the President’s favourite,<br />

the Cattle section in which the show’s<br />

convenor has over ninety entries.<br />

There will be something special in the<br />

Produce Shed where Margaret Johnston’s<br />

knitted cast of Downton Abbey as seventeen<br />

individual mice creations, ‘Mouseton Abbey’<br />

will be on display, along with garden and<br />

home produce, cookery, flowers, needlework<br />

and handcrafts.<br />

Check out the art and photography in the<br />

back shed where you will find the creations<br />

of some exceptional budding artists from<br />

seven local schools.<br />

Performing on stage will be some<br />

brilliantly talented local artists and groups<br />

such as Emma Sparey, Ashy Batchelor, Holly<br />

Kimber, Minaia Davis and the Ellesmere<br />

Pipe Band with the wonderful D J Singh as<br />

compere. Sheffield Primary School’s Kapa<br />

Haka Group will also debut this year, with a<br />

performance at 11.45am.<br />

The children are sure to be entertained in<br />

the fun zone truck entertainment area too<br />

and in finding Scavenger Hunt items listed<br />

on an attachment to a flyer handed out at<br />

the entry gate. This will have the children<br />

hunting all over the grounds in the hope of<br />

completing their entry to earn a prize.<br />

Always a winner is one of the last events of<br />

the day, the Speed Shearers who will kick off<br />

with a relay against the Woodchoppers.<br />

With so much to see, be sure to head to<br />

the <strong>2017</strong> Malvern A & P Show this Saturday,<br />

25 <strong>March</strong> at the Sheffield Showgrounds on<br />

the West Coast Road in Sheffield. It will<br />
