Talented Sarah Rayment was today on cloud nine after winning a once-in-a-lifetime trip to a safari in Kenya after hours of painstaking work making a scale model of her dream tree house.
The ten-year-old saw the competition on the Disney Channel and set to work making her detailed model out of cardboard.

Her father, Gerard, a taxi driver of South Crescent, Prittlewell, said: "My 12 year-old, Tanya, entered as well, and we were very disappointed to find neither of them were runners up. Then we found out Sarah was the winner and we still can't quite believe it."
Mr Rayment, wife Monica, Sarah, Tanya and their brother and sister Gemma and Dale, plan to take the holiday at the end of May.
