A TELEVISION star paid a visit to two primary schools to talk to pupils about the importance of hard work.

Rachel Elnaugh, a former panellist on BBC’s Dragons’ Den, met children at Bournville Primary School in Selworthy Road and St Martin’s Primary School in Spring Hill, Worle, to talk about how to succeed in life. The visit was run by ForLife Martial Arts Academies, a group which teaches disciplines such as tae kwon do to youngsters and adults.

Ms Elnaugh, founder of the national experience day business Red Letter Days, said: “The visits to primary schools to see the fun and focus these young people gain from ForLife has been my very own red letter day experience.”
