PUPILS from four York primary schools will be exhibiting artwork designed to promote healthy eating habits as part of the York Festival of Food and Drink.

Naburn, Knavesmire, Acomb and Fishergate Primary Schools will be taking part in The Art Of Food exhibition at the Guildhall from September 12 to 21.

The exhibition, which is organised by the York Area Business and Education Partnership in association with the city's Hospitality Association, aims to develop awareness in young people of the merits of eating healthily.

It is open to the public throughout the festival, except during special events featured in the programme.
