A NEWTON Aycliffe school has hosted an event to raise awareness of local health services.

Greenfield School's first ever Health Carousel for Year 11 pupils was jointly organised by Key Stage Four and school nurse Julie Rogers.

She is seconded to the school by Sedgefield Primary Care Trust, in support of its extended school initiative.

The initiative was launched in January this year and includes work by ICAN, Greenfield Out of School Club, Community Arts and Education, Community Sports, Study Support and Regeneration, Education, Community and Health.

The success of the event and the positive comments made by those taking part means it will now become an annual event.
