Play a-ground Children from the Drayton Park Primary School are pictured celebrating the relaunch of the Oakley class William Henry and Mary King - in their playground! Nearly 1.000 people turned up to the school summer fair on 27 June to hear Brian Cundall.

Bridlington's assistant mechanic, perform the'launching ceremony'.

Brian, with fellow crew members Paul Humphries and Alistair Turnball. joined in the fun of the fair, even volunteering to be on the receiving end of wet sponges on the 'Soak-a-Bloke' stall. They also spent much of their time explaining the functions of the lifeboat to many interested children.

The relaunch was the highlight of a long campaign to raise over £25,000 for a suitable setting for the lifeboat in the playground..
