Hide AdPupils at Whitnash Primary School were among those enjoying the taste of the Orient.
Terry Tredget, director of Educaterers, said: “We wanted to help the children celebrate Chinese New Year in their schools with this special menu and give them a bit of a change from their usual lunch time. We work closely with our school catering teams to come up with novel ways to get their school children engaged at lunch times and enjoying an assortment of freshly prepared foods throughout the year, so our appreciation goes as always to our staff, who are our greatest asset.”
This year is the Year of the Pig.
