YOUNGSTERS at Westbrook Old Hall Primary School have joined forces with pupils from across Cheshire to take part in a 100 mile challenge.

The school on Old Hall Road is one of nine schools to sign up to the launch of the programme, which is designed to encourage physical activity amongst children. Around 1,280 pupils completed a mile walk to mark the start of the initiative, which is focused on improving the health, well-being and self-esteem of children through movement.
