Cake Sale Frenzy

Sat March 24th
WOW!!! it resembled a swarm of locusts descending on a field of corn.
Needless to say the cake sale was a resounding success,thanks to the kind donations of mouth watering cakes . We set up our cake sale in the main corridor of the school , the bell for break rang at 10:50 and by 11:10 we had sold out raised a staggering £80:00 for gardening club and at 20p a cake that's business.
With that sort of success we would like to arrange another sale later in the summer to buy bulbs for winter.
Unfortunately cake sale days may be numbered due to bureaucracy gone mad ! the governments "healthy eating strategy" means that these sort of events will be frowned upon. Personally I don't see how the sale of a few cakes is going to affect or influence the health of the nation , I am all for healthy eating in schools and hail the abolition of the "turkey twizzler".
Gardening continues, the seedlings have been moved outside,planters are taking shape but theirs a long way to go hope to see some noticable changes after the easter holidays.
have a happy easter
