Six-year-old cries she wants to go to school as mum unveils trip to Disneyland

This is the hilarious moment a mum attempted to surprise her twins with a holiday to Disneyland Paris - only for her daughter to burst into tears and say she'd rather go to school. Heather Lisle surprised identical twins Poppy and Ruby, six, with a family holiday to Disneyland Paris on April 20 by packing their suitcases for them and telling them they were dropping their gran, Emma, 53, off at the airport before school.

When they arrived at the airport, the 32-year-old and partner Tom, 30, pulled out two boarding passes and announced that instead of going to school, they were getting on a plane. While Ruby pretended to faint with happiness and collapsed into Heather's arms, Poppy burst into tears and had to be comforted by recruitment consultant Tom.

Poppy can be heard saying 'but I want to go to school' before Tom scoops her up to give her a hug while Heather tries to convince her they'll have a better time in Paris where they'll meet Mickey, Minnie and Spiderman. The sobbing year one pupil then asks if she can go to school first and go to Paris afterwards.
