A record harvest from the school garden

Reception pulled up forty kilos of potatoes — and chef Tom turned them into the best wedges we’ve ever had.

Reception have been busy in the school garden since September — and last week they pulled up the biggest potato harvest we’ve ever had.

Chef Tom turned the harvest into wedges for the whole school on Friday. The verdict from the dinner hall: the best ever.
