SERVICEMEN dropped in to thank Oxford schoolchildren for their fundraising efforts for Help for Heroes.
Pupils at Headington Preparatory School raised £6,000 for the charity through events including a sponsored swim and selling friendship bracelets made by pupils.
The fundraising activities were organised by head girl Emma Henriksen, 11.
She said: “They have fought for our country and I thought they deserved more respect.”
Head Andrea Bartlett praised the pupils’ hard work.
