Although Halloween falls during the half-term holidays this year, the Prep School marked the occasion yesterday with the annual House Pumpkin Carving Competition. Pupils from our 8s to 11s (Year 4-7) brought in their imaginative and inventive pumpkins, made at home, to be displayed and judged.
Designs this year included, amongst others, a snowman, a Wicked Witch of the West, an alligator, a carousel, a Triffid plant, a killer surgeon, a prison, and even an anglerfish - all cleverly crafted from pumpkins.
The shortlisted entries were selected (see first photo in the gallery below), and the final winners are (in alphabetical order):
- Allegra H (10s) / Ferry House/ Apple
- Boris S (9s) / Lonsdale House/ Killer Doctor or Surgeon
- George A (10s) / Lonsdale House / Triffid
- Jack L (10s) / Ferry House / Ferry Logo Engraving
- Jesse K (9s) / Bridge House / Frog
- Lara B (8s) / Bridge House / Spider
- Rosanna L (8s) / Lonsdale House / HMP Prison
Mr Hardie will be announcing the overall winner next term!
