TWO brothers had big shoes to fill this term as they took over the reins at their school in Gerrards Cross.

Henry and Freddie Terrell were given the power of the Headmaster and the Head of Pre-Prep at Thorpe House School, in Oval Way, as they took control for a day.

The young brothers, in Year 2 and 4 respectively, were given the opportunity after their parents won an auction organised by the Parents Association in the summer.

Included in the days responsibilities were the lunchtime duty, signing letters and entertaining class mates with hot chocolate in their new offices.

The day proved an inspiration for Freddie who now wants to me a Headmaster when he grows up.

As well as inviting friends for hot chocolate and biscuits in the office, Henry also used his role to give a red card to his form tutor.
