Amidst jubilant crowds, 56 lucky pupils from Mandeville enjoyed a prime position, during the Queen's visit to Hatfield House on 14th June 2012. Her Majesty visited the Hatfield Estate as part of her Diamond Jubilee Celebrations. Mandeville were amoung 70 schools from across Hertfordshire who were invited to join the celebration. After planting a tree, the Queen walked over and had a brief chat with our pupils, enquiring about which school we were from, before getting back into her car.
