This year we, again, grew some giant pumpkins.
They were GINORMOUS and everyone was fascinated with them!
After storing them in the enviro room for a while we decided now was the perfect time to carve them.
First Miss Long ran a competition - anyone interested in helping needed to draw a design and hand it in.
Some students from year 3 / 4 and year 5 / 6 were chosen as winners and helped every lunch time last week to carve faces, patterns and shapes into the pumpkins.
They were surprisingly easy to carve - we just used spoons!
We displayed them outside the hall for assembly on Friday.
We collected all the seeds from them so we can try and grow some more from seed - both at school and at home! Time to get planting!
We found a video HERE about how to grow them from seed.
