Nato: 'Today we met the president' - Newport pupils

Two pupils at Mount Pleasant Primary school in Newport were picked to read a welcome to President Barack Obama when he visited with Prime Minister David Cameron before the Nato summit started.

A 22-car convoy carrying the two leaders swept into Mount Pleasant Primary School in Rogerstone, Newport, at 09:40 BST on Thursday.

President Obama and Mr Cameron joined a lesson both greeting children with "Bore Da" - good morning in Welsh.

Ella and Ben, both 10, told Hywel Griffith it was something they would never forget.
