Class Indigo 1 (Year 5) from Greasley Beauvale Primary School in Eastwood crowned the nation’s funniest with their joke ““What happened to the math teachers garden? It grew square roots”.    

The winning class have been immortalised in Beano form, featuring in this week’s comic on sale now in shops across the country. Each individual member of the class has been drawn by the legendary Beano artist Nigel Parkinson.
