Fruity Friday continues to be a popular weekly event at Newcastle Bridges School, thanks to the hard work and creativity of Skye, who prepares the fruit each week for pupils and staff to enjoy.

As well as offering fresh favourites, Skye introduces an unusual fruit every week, giving everyone the chance to try something new. So far, they have sampled dragon fruit, lychee, golden kiwi, persimmon, passion fruit, melon, pearl strawberries, Moor pears and figs.

Recently, Skye has taken Fruity Friday to the next level by making delicious fruit smoothies. The pupils and staff could choose between an orange, pineapple, mango and honey smoothie, or a blueberry, banana, and apple blend. Both were extremely popular and proved to be a tasty and healthy treat.

A huge thank you to Skye for making Fruity Friday such a success and encouraging everyone to enjoy a wider variety of fruit.
