Abergavenny pupils enjoyed a three-day visit to London, which included meeting local MP David Davies in Downing Street.
The Year 6 children, from Llantilio Pertholey Church in Wales Primary School, visited the Science Museum, Ripley's Believe It or Not and the Rainforest Cafe before a trip to the West End to see The Lion King musical.
Teacher Matthew Rees said: "The trip was thoroughly enjoyed by the children and the staff.
"London was as its best and the weather was wonderful. There were all sorts of extra events going on, which made the trip more special.
"They were particularly delighted to see Formula One cars in Whitehall ahead of the British Grand Prix. I had to explain that this does not happen every day in London!"
