SHE has fed thousands of pupils at one Hampshire school over the last 20 years, but this time it was her turn to be waited on.

Youngsters at Kings Copse Primary School gathered to say a special thank you and farewell to their much-loved dinner lady Sylvie Pearce.

After 20 years as lunchtime supervisor at the Hedge End school, Sylvie is retiring. To make her last day a special one, staff and pupils held an assembly and lunch in her honour.
