FOOD FOR THOUGHT: School pupils have been given a lesson in healthy eating.

Andy Collins, from Moorlands arts and mental health group Borderland Voices, is running three workshops for Year Two pupils at Beresford Memorial First School, in Leek.

She is helping children at the Novi Lane school explore healthy eating options though 'art for health' activities. The project focused on the importance of five-a-day portions of fruit and veg to encourage pupils to eat healthily.

Pupil Jessie Stone, aged seven, pictured, said: "I have loved learning about what I need to do to stay healthy."
