A BREAKFAST of exercise and healthy food is making youngsters at a primary school full of energy for the day.

Pupils at Royston Primary School in Penge High Street have a healthy breakfast and workout before lessons begin every Tuesday and Wednesday.

Around 50 children have been taking part, and the scheme is such a success that the school did a full week of the breakfasts and exercise last week.

Deputy headteacher Rachel Mollett said: “The idea is to teach the children to eat healthily and exercise regularly, and they have been really enjoying it.”

After their workout on Friday, the youngsters joined their teachers and parents for a protest outside the school to show their opposition to Bromley Council’s plans to end lollipop lady crossing patrols.
