Spooky Goings On

We had lots of fun at a Halloween party for the ‘Jazz It Up’ fundraising event. We started the day getting our outfits ready, painting our faces and body parts with blood and guts!

We began with six lovely children and ended up with a fearsome cat, a scary clown, a bloody school girl, a spider boy, a spider girl and a wolf!

The children decorated Tracie up as a moody pumpkin and made her go and sit in the pumpkin patch for a photo!

We had fun joining in with spooky games, dance competitions, find the spider, balloon popping and enjoyed eating fingers in rolls with sticky blood!

We enjoyed ourselves so much we decided to have another spooky day. We made pumpkin prints, played spooky snap and had afternoon tea, with wiggly worms, creepy eyeballs, long fingers, pumpkin soup, and spider cakes. Yuck!

What a Pavlova!

We have been waiting and waiting for our raspberries to grow since the beginning of summer. Poppy has been waiting to make raspberry coulis and Faith wanted to make raspberry pavlova. This week, while we were tidying the garden ready for autumn, we cut back the blueberry bush and to our delight, found GIANT RASPBERRIES!

Our Raspberry

Silly Tracie, they’re not summer fruiting raspberries, they’re autumn raspberries!
