A school in Bedford has shared its Coronation celebrations with local care home residents – and the school ‘Royal canine in residence’.
Pilgrims Pre-Preparatory School invited residents from nearby Maydenbury House and Airedale Nursing Home to its coronation assembly, where pupils Rowan and Maya were crowned Pilgrims’ King and Queen.
Jake, the school’s ‘Royal canine in residence’ also dressed up for the special occasion.
Following the assembly, the VIP guests were served lunch in the main school hall while the children enjoyed a picnic with their friends.
“It was fantastic to mark this historic occasion with our very own coronation,” said Mrs Angela Knight, the school’s music coordinator.
“We really enjoyed welcoming our local care home residents, who delighted in sharing their own memories of other Royal events with our children.”
