The event at Heathfield Special Needs School, in Fareham, saw children from other schools take part in the activities too.

In the lead-up to the festival students spent two weeks learning about other cultures and different people to highlight the importance of diversity.

They had sensory story and African drumming workshops as well as a visit from Paralympian Aaron Phipps, part of the wheelchair rugby for team GB.
