Herringthorpe resident Dean is pictured here with the leaping porpoise, after taking the top spot in his crafty category.
Lilian Shears — former Dinnington Comprehensive art technician and now vice-chair of RotherFed — taught a mosaic course at Springwell Gardens Community Centre.

Hide AdShe said: “The course was part of a skill-sharing session we hold every week. Dean took part in our course.
“One week, he asked if he could take his work to Rotherham Show — he already had all of the paperwork.
“I went around the show on the Saturday and saw that he had taken first place. I was really chuffed for him.”
Dean took home a certificate and a £5 cash prize.
