A GROUP of children have proved they are on the ball when it comes to answering questions about good behaviour.
As a reward, a dozen children from Nunthorpe Comprehensive, Middlesbrough, will watch the town's team in action against Chelsea this weekend.
The youngsters heard talks from Cleveland Police on issues such as anti-social behaviour and entered a competition which tested them on what they had just learned, as well as answering questions about their favourite football club.
The winners, who were also nominated for their positive behaviour in school, are being treated to an hour-long coaching session at Eston Sports Academy before being taken to the Riverside stadium for lunch, an introduction to Roary the club mascot and then the game.
PC Allen Evans, of Cleveland Police, said: "Young people often get such negative Press but here we have 12 students who have shown outstanding awareness of what is and is not acceptable behaviour."
