A schoolgirl from Thanet's picture has been picked as the winning entry in the Dreamland Trust’s first colouring competition.

Budding artist Alisha Wallace, 10, from Ramsgate entered the competition in September when she visited the Trust’s ‘Step back in time’ exhibition.

Her prize is tickets to Dreamland’s ‘Get Spooked’ half term event.

The children’s Halloween event opens this weekend and is on for the Wednesday, Thursday and Friday of half term week.

Alisha, who attends Ramsgate Arts Primary School, said: "I am so excited and can’t wait to go to ‘Get Spooked’ at the weekend."

Bernie Morgan, chair of the Dreamland Trust said: "Congratulations to Alisha.

"We had some wonderful, very colourful entries to the competition and all the children put a lot of effort into their colouring.

"The exhibition is open to people of all ages but we realised that young children might like something to do while their parents were looking at the pictures and films."

The Dreamland Trust is an independent registered charity.

Its exhibition ‘Step Back in Time’ features photographs dating back to the early 1900s, films from the park in the 70’s and 80’s and the opportunity to see some of the Trust’s digital archives.

It is open weekends between 11am and 5pm and will also be open on Wednesday, Thursday and Friday of half term week from 11am to 3pm.
