Four Woodley Primary Schools took to the kitchen recently for the annual Woodley Schools’ Bake-Off competition.
Held at The Bulmershe School, budding bakers from Beechwood, Highwood, St Dominic Savio and Willow Bank Junior schools designed cakes at home and school, then came together to bake and decorate them from scratch.
The Year 5 children worked in pairs, supported by Year 9 students and are said to have shown "great teamwork and perseverance".
The children also undertook an icing task, set by Nicola Jolliffe from the Jolliffe Cake Company, where they created beautiful icing roses.
Woodley Town Deputy Mayor, Cllr Juliet Anderson, Cllr Keith Baker and Nicola Jolliffe judged the competition and chose a pair from St Dominic Savio School as the overall winners with their wonderful creation, Pollination Sensation.
However, they all agreed it was a very difficult decision as the standard of all the cakes was so high again this year.
