PRIMARY school children in Pendle are invited to take part in a competition organised by Nelson and Colne College students in a bid to encourage them to keep their bodies healthy.

The poster contest is open to pupils in reception to Year 3 classes.

It has been organised by health and social care students at the college.

Section leader Bev Cross, said: "The competition will be judged by the students as well as those on child care programmes.

"We hope it will teach children about healthy bodies and widen community knowledge about how to keep ourselves fit.

"The project and the winning entry will be entered for the North West Regional Health Authority's health challenge awards."
