THESE pupils from Langstone Primary School had some interesting things to say about their teachers.

Here are some of the reasons why they think teachers are great:

"If we didn't have teachers we'd all be a bit stupid"

"I like teachers because they give us biscuits"

"They give us treats if we get ten stars"

"Being a teacher is hard and tiring. Harder than having sheep on a farm"

"You need to be quite clever to be a teacher, because they teach people things they don't know"

"When we get stuck in our learning, they help us and tell us what to do"
