George said: "It was really special to get a letter from the King and it made me very happy."

Olivia added: "When George was made King and said free ice cream, and an ice cream truck appeared from nowhere, it was really magical."

Daniel Woodrow, headteacher at the school, said: "The children were thrilled to hear that King Charles and Queen Camilla wrote to them and loved seeing the letter.

"Our Coronation Day was a really special occasion and one that we hope the children will remember for years to come - this letter is a lovely way to help them do that.

"Their Royal Highnesses are more than welcome to visit St Greg's at any time and meet their mini-selves, and if the King wanted to treat the children (and staff) to more free ice cream then that would be lovely too."
