Big breakfast not so Teenie for children
HEARTS FC mascots Teenie and Tynie joined pupils of Castleview Primary School to help launch Edinburgh's Breakfast Club initiative.
They met Thomas Purves, eight, Alex Huth, seven, and Andrew Rea, six, for a healthy start to the day.
The club - promoted by Heart of Midlothian Education and Community Trust, the city council and insurance firm Aegon UK - hopes to set up facilities for breakfasts in all council-run schools by the end of 2010.
Beverley Nimmo, of Castleview Primary, said:
"Our focus is to raise attainment levels and give our children the best possible start in education and life. The Breakfast Club is a way of doing that."
