There was a buzz around the school as British values, the monarchy and the Commonwealth were all celebrated by the students and staff.
The special educatuonal needs school was transformed into a palace for the day, with a royal parade and a tea party topping off the day's entertainment, with parents and grandparents happily joining in.
Lonsdale School has offered a public thank you to the Hertfordshire Lietenancy, Beefeater Lawrence Watts and everyone who joined who made this "a very special and memorable day."
