YOUNGSTERS at a Meltham school have been learning about the importance of breakfast.

Children at Meltham CE Primary School took part in a national promotion ‘Shake Up Your Wake Up’ this week.

Youngsters throughout the school tried out different breakfasts.

Key stage one youngsters made smoothies while key stage two children tasted muffins and bagels.

Reception class children munched on various cereals.

Caroline Pearson, the school’s Let’s Get Cooking Club co-ordinator, said: “It was all about getting children to try something different and make them aware that breakfast is the most important meal of the day”.
