Year 5 children’s punctuation pun scoops top prize in the Beano’s Britain’s Funniest Class competition
A joke about punctuation has been chosen as the funniest in a competition run by the Beano comic.
Year 5 pupils at Riverley primary school in Leyton, east London, won the accolade with their joke: What do you call the fanciest punctuation? An a-posh-trophe.
Their class teacher, Maisha Mahfuza, was named Britain’s funniest teacher.
The winners will be featured in this week’s 4,290th edition of the Beano, drawn by the renowned artist Nigel Parkinson.
