A RIGHT royal good time was had at Hagbourne Primary School near Didcot, as pupils helped commemorate an historic moment in history.
The day-long festivities began with the 30 youngsters performing a 20-minute Tudor play in French, dressed in full Tudor costume.
During the play the eight and nine-year-olds re-enacted for parents and guests the extravagant royal meeting between King Francois I of France and King Henry VIII of England on the Field of the Cloth of Gold in 1520.
Pictured getting into the Tudor swing of things are, from left, Oliver Plazzas, Alice Macarthur, Jessica Barnes, Millie Hooper, Hetty Watts-Lay and Jim Norman.
Afterwards, pupils undertook French language activities before settling down to a banquet of ragout of beef with green beans and carrots in the school hall.
French teacher Pippa Jacobs said: "The children could not believe how much confidence they had got through learning the lines."
