Before half term, a huge number of students took part in our annual House Pumpkin Carving Competition, showcasing their creativity, teamwork and house spirit.
Working together in their house groups, students set about designing and carving an impressive 20 pumpkins in just one hour. The competition was filled with enthusiasm, laughter and plenty of determination as teams worked hard to bring their ideas to life. While 19 pumpkins made it to the judging stage, one unfortunate creation sadly collapsed under the pressure, making for an amusing moment during the deliberations!
After an hour of students truly ex-seed-ing expectations, the judges were faced with the difficult task of choosing a winner. Following careful consideration, Blessed John Ingram House was crowned the overall champion for their outstanding effort and creative design.
The event was a fantastic example of collaboration and friendly competition, with students from across the school coming together to support one another and celebrate their House communities.
Well done to everyone who took part and contributed to the success of the competition. A special thank you also goes to the EM6 students who generously gave their time to support the event and help it run smoothly.
We are incredibly proud of the enthusiasm, creativity and teamwork shown by all involved.
