The Great Euro Bake Off

The Modern Foreign Languages’ Department celebrated the 20th anniversary of the European Day of Languages by encouraging pupils to become involved in The Great European Bake Off. Girls across all year groups were invited, as individuals or working in a group, to design and bake a birthday celebration dessert. Entries were subsequently judged and the winner, Year 7 pupil Hanaa Sheikh, was revealed in a European Day of Languages assembly later the following week. Head of Languages Mrs Neil said:

“We had over 20 entries - such an incredible response. We were particularly impressed with the originality of the entries and the stories behind the creations. It was extremely difficult to choose a winner! Hanaa chose to design and bake a Norwegian Kransekake or wreath cake, as she found it so eye-catching. She added her own twist by making it a funfetti cake, filled with sweets.”
