A total of 50 students, parents and staff submitted entries to the ‘Bake Off’ event held at the GCA on Monday 14th December 2015 in aid of the school ‘Pitch In’ appeal.

The Mayor and Consort of Garstang (Lynn and Gordon Harter) together with Nicola Jaques from the Garstang Courier judged the event which had four categories : celebrity, chocolate, muffins and biscuits.

Judging was very difficult but after much deliberation and tasting, the winners in each category were:

  • Celebration – Miss Meadows
  • Chocolate – Mia Strickland (Year 8)
  • Muffins – Miss Shepherd
  • Biscuits – Eddie Horn (Year 8)

Eddie Horn was crowned the Star Baker for his shortbread and chocolate Christmas tree biscuits.

A cake sale after the event raised a total of £302 for ‘Pitch In’.
