Children at a Bradford primary school will be leading the way in a national initiative to help more than 3,000 youngsters combat obesity.
St Columba’s RC Primary in Tong Street is the first in the district to sign-up to Activ-eat, a programme to encourage youngsters to eat more fruit and vegetables.
Armed with fruit and juicers, volunteers from Knowles Court residential home in Holme Wood, Bradford, will teach children about healthy eating.
They will give children the chance to make healthy smoothie drinks, taste fruits from around the world and play games which highlight the importance of eating fruit and vegetables.
