Last week  Liverpool cabbies decorated their taxis with balloons, banners and flags and set off in convoy  for their annual trip to Camelot.        Now in it’s 25th year the Liverpool Taxi  Drivers Association once again treated over 100 under privileged children to a day out at the  park where they were able to enjoy all the rides and the daily Jousting Tournament.

 “This is our third Knight School event and every year the number of children wanting to attend increases. Children and adults alike love our jousting show and that’s where the idea for knight school came from and Give children a sneaky behind the scenes look at how King Arthur and his knights prepare for battle,” comments Camelot’s Marketing Manager, Sandra Dempsey.

Youngsters who would like to attend simply have to write to King Arthur and tell him in no more than fifty word why they think they should be chosen for a place at Camelot’s Knight School.
