STUDENTS at a North Yorkshire school are going to sample a menu dreamed up by two of their fellow students this month.

The Allertonshire School, in Northallerton, ran a competition to design healthy and attractive school dinners, as part of British Food Fortnight.

The judging panel, made up of school governors, headteacher Madeline Hart and Tony Howard, from Lewis and Cooper, chose the menus created by year eight pupil Adam Farrow and James Dowson from year nine.

Adam's menu will be used on Friday and James' on October 15. Both were given a £10 book voucher, a £10 Lewis and Cooper voucher, a free meal on the day their menu is used and a North Yorkshire County Catering Herbie mug.

More than 20,000 schools across England and Wales have been involved in British Food Fortnight, carrying out food-related activities and holding special food lessons.
