Worthing Mayor Ann Lynn took time out of her busy schedule to welcome a group of Spanish students to town.

The 47 students from Madrid have come to study at the Passport Language School based at Our Lady of Sion School, Worthing.

The students are staying with local families during their three-week stay.

Organiser Ron Fowkes, said: "They are a smashing group of young people and it is a pleasure to have them in Worthing. The whole scheme is run very carefully."
