Pizza enthusiasts were in for a treat as a local pizza restaurant, Pizza Man, joined forces with a talented parent chef to serve up freshly made pizzas.

Jennifer Thornton, Headteacher at Fernhurst Primary School, says: “Fernhurst sits at the heart of the community and we’re so grateful for the time everyone is investing to improve our beautiful school.”
