PUPILS at a Woolston special school have received a letter of thanks from the Queen after they sent Her Majesty cards on her 90th birthday.

Youngsters at Fox Wood School on Holes Lane received a letter from Balmoral Castle earlier this month in which Queen Elizabeth II thanked them for their wishes.

Students at the community special school for youngsters with learning difficulties had spent a morning making their own birthday cards for Her Royal Highness’ 90th.
