London: Actor David Hasselhoff paid a surprise visit to a school to highlight the importance of education.

"Awesome staff teachers and The Children of the future!! Thank you it was an honor!" he posted on Twitter. A message on the school`s website reads, "The pupils of Pengeulan had a wonderful surprise when David Hasselhoff unexpectantly `popped in` for a visit when travelling through South Wales.
