Youngsters and staff at Fordham Primary School have been singing about their school dinners.
Headteacher Kevin Bullock joined Year 4 pupils, taught by Natalie Harvey, and catering assistants to create a song encouraging children to eat the meals.
School headteacher Kevin Bullock said the idea came after school cook Crinna Tyrrell said it would be good to have a school dinner song.
Mr Bullock came up with the framework for the song and the children worked on the lyrics, sung to the tune of supercali- fragilisticexpialidocious from Mary Poppins.
"Our key point was to emphasise that school meals have really come on since the days of Jamie Oliver," said Mr Bullock.
Pupils have already performed the song at their harvest festival concert at St Peter's Church, Fordham, and are now hoping to sing for elderly residents at Withers Place in Fordham nearer Christmas.
You can listen to the song here.
