Each child then made a cake or a selection of buns for Thursday morning, then they set up their classroom and got ready for the other classes to come and pick up some tasty treats. The children even set up a stall for the other families to donate to the cause in the afternoon, to pick up any remaining treats. The pupils were super at explaining their deals, working out the change and even asking for some kind donations.
