Foxcombe East and West have kicked off the Halloween season with a pumpkin carving competition. Each team was challenged to carve the best pumpkin and win the competition for their tutor group.

The competitiveness of the students was high, with all teams getting very creative using toothpicks and off cuts from their pumpkins to make wings and horns, pumpkins guts to spill out the carved mouths and using smaller pumpkins to build up their designs. 

Everyone had a great time getting stuck in to the mess, eating spooky sweets, cheering each other on and creating the scariest, funniest or craziest jack-o’-lanterns.
