The cake stall looked and smelled amazing!! We had mini cup cakes, crispie cakes, brownies, rock bakes, tiffins and fair trade chocolate! Thank you to everyone who helped baked these cakes :)
Alongside our cake stall we had yummy soup! This was to support the Super Soup campaign with proceeds going to Christian Aid.
Our art exhibition featured drawings by pupils at Mahrishi Dayanand School, Jaislamer, Rajasthan. This school is humble but forward thinking, and we wanted to help The Inner Gift Foundation to raise money to improve their school.
