Pupils from Park Lane Primary School in Whittlesey took part in a crown-making competition to mark the Coronation of King Charles III. 

The competition was hosted by housing developer Barratt Homes. 

Marketing executive, Sophie, and marketing co-ordinator, Jasmine, visited the school to choose a winner from each year group. 

The competition was tight as the whole school’s artistry was on full display, but the deserved winners each took home a coronation teddy bear as their prize.

Year 2 Teacher at Park Lane Primary School, Alison Prince, said: “The children put in so much effort to produce such unique and amazing crowns, that Sophie and Jasmine had such a difficult job in choosing just one crown from each year group. 

“The winners were presented with a rather lovely Coronation teddy bear to mark the occasion, which the children loved.  

“We would like to say a big thank you to all of the children who took part.”
