The children danced beautifully and energetically, while The Ragbag Morris dancers performed traditional dances and even got some volunteers involved.
Rt Hon Andrew Joicey unveiled two new plaques in the arches of the walled garden created at Ravnclay with the children of Ford school depicting rural life.
The children had also used watercolours to create a commemorative stamp design, on display in the Lady Waterford Hall.
