Pupils at Oxford Spires Academy jumped at the chance to meet with the Duchess.

Tray Sam said he couldn’t stop shaking after sharing a few words with her.

The 15-year-old said: “She came up to me and said it must be really cold out here. I said it was really cold, so she said she’d get out of our way in that case.”

He added: “I thought she was brilliant. I’m still shaking. She was hot!”

Aisha Dami, 14, added: “She wanted to know about our year and the house we were in. I said to her ‘oh my god, you’re so pretty’.”

Pupils Emma Harsant, Darrion Smile and Jasmine Green were excited to meet the Duchess.

Emma, 15, said: “She is beautiful, has a pretty smile and I loved her dress.

“We never thought that someone like her would come to a place like this.

“Nothing like this ever happens at our school.”

Cowley girls Marrium Zeb, Caiyan Yu, Lorna Keaton, Megan Watson and Crystal Troughd were flying the banner for their house.

Lorna, 14, said: “She was so pretty and she was really tall.

“She looked straight at us and waved – we couldn’t believe it.

“It’s amazing that she came to Oxford and she came to our school.”
