A NEW breakfast club at a Darlington school has proved successful.

Between 20 and 30 youngsters are regularly attending the sessions at Rise Carr Primary School.

Children are enjoying the novelty of a chance to eat breakfast with their friends, as well as a healthy start to the day.

Teacher Tony Kemp said: "We started it very recently and it's been a real success."

Co-op Dairies are providing the milk and other donations, such as cereal, have come from parents and friends of the school.
