We had our Food Technologies lesson with Miss Robinson where we were learning about food allergies and intolerances. We learned about how different types of food affects the way our body works. – JK

We created Pumpkin Carving Competition posters to present in assemblies. We had to follow success criteria and all got a chance to vote for our favourite poster. Just a reminder we are holding the Competition next Thursday (31st of October) and all you need to do is carve a pumpkin and bring in 50p to enter the competition. You will be in with a chance of winning a spooky spectacular prize. – MC
