Pupils and Staff at Hollyfast Primary School came through the gates looking a little bit different today- not in school uniform but wearing the colours of Coventry City.

Both pupils and staff came in wearing the teams kit and other blue outfits as well as taking on some fun football activities.

It's only 24 hours to go till the team take on Luton at Wembley for a spot in the Premier League.

If successful it will be the teams first time in the league since 2001.

The Head Teach Gary Watson said: "It's a really special event as it's not very often that Coventry City get to the play off finals.

"We've got loads of fans here and it's just a great opportunity for the community to come together and get behind the city. We can't wait for tomorrow's game."

And the team coach also left for Wembley today. Staff and a few fans turned out at the teams training ground to wave players off.
