PUPILS from a Malvern school were stars for a day as they signed copies of their new fund-raising cook book.

The book, A Taste of the Hills, features more than 100 local recipes compiled by children, teachers and families from St James’ CE Primary School, in West Malvern.

Some of the pupils who contributed signed copies of the book during its launch at Malvern Book Co- Operative, in St Ann’s Road.

Clare Gilliam, who edited the book, said the launch was a big success.

“The shop was really buzzing and we sold a lot of copies,” she said.

The cook book costs £6.99 from the school, Malvern Book Co-Op and The Brewers Arms and Regents Village Shop, both in West Malvern.
