Students at the Seahaven Academy have voted for a new Young Mayor for Newhaven this week. Newhaven Town Mayor Councillor Judith Ost went up to the school last week to announce the winner and present her with her Young Mayor's badge.

There were four candidates - Tamsin Pendrey, Katie Strick, Brooke Murtagh and Janki Pillai. The vote was very close and was won by 12 year old Janki, who is a year 8 pupil. Many congratulations to her.

Janki's first official engagement will be to lay a wreath on behalf of the town council at the annual Remembrance Day ceremony on Sunday the 9th of November.
