THEY say that breakfast is the most important meal of the day.

And so it seems at St Stephen's RC Primary School on Sandy Lane, Orford, where the breakfast club is going from strength to strength.

It opened a year ago offering healthy breakfasts and fun activities to ease the children into the day.

But organisers were in for a shock as they only expected around eight children to sign up.

Twelve months on and it has more than 42 members.

The club runs from 8am-8.45am and offers activities including snooker and pool, television, table tennis, dance and music.
