Dame Kelly delights youngsters

The British athletics superstar, Dame Kelly Holmes, has been delighting youngsters from Auldyn School by handing over a trophy and chatting with them.

Dame Kelly was recognising prize winners in an 'adopt a nation' competition, part of the build up to the Commonwealth Youth Games.
