A MILK monitor has been rewarded for her hard work.

South Kilvington CE Primary School milk monitor Samantha Metcalfe was delighted to be named the best milk monitor in her school.

Samantha was chosen for the award because of her diligence and responsibility in helping to distribute the milk in school.

Jon Thornes, managing director of Cool Milk at School, which made the award, said: "The position of being a milk monitor not only gives the child a sense of responsibility, but also helps with their numerical and social skills."

Samantha was presented with a certificate and badge for her efforts.
