A GROUP of pupils from Wallingford School helped immigrant families become fully-fledged UK citizens.

For the second time, teenagers from the school organised a citizenship ceremony as part of a GCSE course.

One of them, Amber Stickland, said: "We organised this with no adult help, arranging everything from the ceremony itself to the catering.

"Children of our age rarely get the chance to organise something so important."

The ceremony was held at the school on Friday. Susan Njogo and her nine-month-old daughter Joanna Chacha, who were there to watch the ceremony, are pictured.

Those taking part were officially pronounced citizens of the UK, allowing them to apply for a British passport and live in the UK.
