YSGOL Chwilog pupils have been learning about healthy eating following a visit by local chef Dan Roberts from Dylan’s Restaurant, Criccieth.

During a food-tasting workshop, organised by Dan Roberts, on Wednesday, 18 January, the children had a chance to sample a variety of food items, from Welsh cheese and seasonal fruit and vegetables, to locally-caught crab, oysters and mussels.

They were then asked to say which were their favourite and least favourite, and then describe the different tastes and textures they had experienced.

The visit was arranged by headteacher Lyndsey Vaughan Pleming, and 24 pupils aged seven to 11 took part.

Lyndsey said: “We’re really grateful to Dylan’s for coming along to teach the children about healthy eating, a theme that is particularly apt for this time of year.
