Headteacher, Paul Davies, said: '˜They all took their roles seriously, came dressed for the occasion and even prepared lesson plans. They had fun but also gained an insight into what it would be like to work in a school.'  

The children undertook a variety of roles including caretaker, administration staff and teachers.

Luke, who had the prime position of headteacher, said: '˜It was great fun being the headteacher and being in charge of the school.'

Isabelle, who worked in the school office, added: '˜I especially liked checking the letters and sorting files. It was a great experience.'

The '˜Takeover Morning'  was the culmination of a range of fun activities in the final week of term.
