A post mortem has failed to establish what caused the death of a five-old-boy at a Tolworth school last week.
The emergency services were called to Tolworth Infant and Nursery School just before 1pm on Thursday after Samuel Orola fell off a climbing frame during his lunch break.
He was taken to Kingston Hospital after paramedics found him unconscious and not breathing, but was pronounced dead on arrival.
On Tuesday, a post mortem held at Great Ormond Street Hospital failed to establish the cause of death and police are now waiting for the results of further tests, which could take up to six weeks.
Floral tributes have been left by the school gates.
In a statement, issued on behalf of his mother, father, younger sister and wider family, they pay tribute to Sammy for touching their lives.
It reads: "Following Samuel's tragic death at school, we would like to thank everyone for their support and good wishes. Samuel was a loving and happy boy who touched everyone's life in a very positive way.
"We will certainly never forget the happy times we shared with him and pray his soul rests in peace. Amen. This is obviously a trying time for the family and we appeal for privacy to grieve, thank you."
