Silver class pupils ended the term by having fun carving out some pumpkins for Halloween. Each week in our ‘Food is Fun’ session we explore the texture, smell, sight and taste of different foods.

Silver class were great at doing the carving and worked really well as a team to create some scary pumpkins!
