The 18 excited Beavers and their group leaders visited the council chamber where they were taught about the history of Sandy and its council.

A Sandy Town Council spokeswoman said: "The children heard about the origins and past of the council building at 10 Cambridge Road, and took a close look at the council crest and town sign, to learn about the relevance each has to the town.
