Pupils from Coverack primary school travelled to London to receive a Schools Curriculum Award 2002 at a special ceremony at the Tate Modern art gallery.
Bethany Lyne and Charles Mita - the oldest pupils at the school - were presented with the prestigious award by HRH the Duke of Gloucester, who congratulated the tiny primary on a great achievement.
In addition to a certificate, the pair were presented with a limited edition print of a painting commissioned for the recipients of the award, which recognises schools that have strong links with their community.
Earlier in the day, the pupils, along with Coverack headteacher Martin Dalton, were given a private tour of the Houses of Parliament and met local MP Andrew George at Westminster Palace.
Mr George, who arranged the visit to coincide with the Tate Modern ceremony, was delighted to hear of the community initiatives which had earned the school its award.
