SCHOOLCHILDREN in Broughton celebrated the royal wedding with a marriage ceremony of their own.

Pupils of Broughton Infant School gathered for the the mock wedding of Holly Groom and Malakai Gregory – Kate Middleton and Prince William.

Children dressed as members of the bridal party and guests from around the world. Headteacher Sue Davies played the part of the Queen.

Deputy headteacher Siobhan Green said: “It was a brilliant day and the children really enjoyed themselves.”

After the ceremony guests were treated to a wedding breakfast and disco.

“It is nice for the children to see how events like weddings work, as many of them had never been to a real one,” added Mrs Green.

“Thanks must go to everyone involved, especially the school cook and kitchen staff for the excellent food.”
