We were thrilled to see such a fantastic, creative and decorative array of cakes entered into our  MFL Bake-off Competition, an annual event held to mark the European Day of Languages on the 26th September. Thank you so much to all those who contributed - we think we had the most cakes ever!  The staff, particularly Mr Goodall, were so impressed with how many entered and the quality of the entries.  This made judging very difficult!  

Thank you must also go to Mrs Fortnam and Mr Campbell for the two staff entries!
