Today the children gathered fruit from the nursery garden.  They even explored the secret nursery garden and collected as many pears, plums, apples and raspberries they could find! They washed them ready for the afternoon and even had some for snack.

After collecting the fruit the children explored the frog pond – Miss Pollard has definitely made a new friend!

The afternoon children chopped the fruit up into little bits and added them to the cake mixture that they made themselves.  We used butter, eggs, flour, vanilla, lemon and baking powder to make a fabulous cake for our autumn celebration tomorrow.

It looks delicious!
