CHILDREN and parents alike made a "huge effort" to collect food for the city's needy while celebrating harvest festival.

Youngsters at Shakespeare Primary School collected the equivalent of three-and-a-half shopping trolleys of dried foods and tins for the Plymouth's Foodbank.

Headteacher Karen Menis said the children had been learning all about food from the sea this term – and marked the harvest festival by having a "special celebration".

"The children marked the occasion through song and poetry which was all fish-themed," said Ms Menis.
