Challenge: Pumpkin carving

To continue our theme of challenges, some year 4 students were set an Autumnal challenge. The challenge was to be the first team to hollow out a pumpkin, which is an incredibly messy but fun job. At first, the students were reluctant to put their hands into the gooey mess of seeds and orange gunk and were opting to use a spoon to scoop the insides out. However, they soon realised this would take ages, so they had to get their hands dirty. Various facial expressions and hand flickering were definitely the common site! The winning team were proud of their work, completing the task in 25 minutes.
