YOUNGSTERS from Chadsgrove School enjoyed a treat for the festive season with a Christmas meal organised by the Holiday Inn.

It was the third year running that pupils from the school had been treated to a Christmas meal and party at the hotel.

The event was organised by the Holiday Inn’s sales manager Jude Ellis, and Vanessa Butterworth, events manager together with Liz Morgan of Chadsgrove School.

Ms Butterworth said: “Lunch was enjoyed by all and plates were emptied, followed by a rapturous applause as Father Christmas arrived to hand out presents to all children.”

After their lunch the children enjoyed a disco and dancing.
