Nether Stowe School students show off their culinary skills

The Nether Stowe School pupils decided to hold a cake bake after the loss of two fellow students.

Staff and students at the school donated the ingredients which were used to bake a range of cakes and biscuits while other youngsters made cakes at home for the event.

Ben Burkinshaw said: “Two students from our school have died from cancer and we wanted to raise money to help to find a cure.

“We hope that the money we raise will go towards helping those with cancer and their families.”

Food Technology teacher Emma Ashby added: “We wanted to do something practical which would make a difference.

“Baking the cakes was thoroughly enjoyable, very hectic but worthwhile.”
