Pancake Day!

Tuesday, March 5th 2019

Happy Shrove Tuesday from all the team at Foxglove. We've been having a busy day with the Tuesday volunteers, and children from both the Dales School and Mowbray School. It's been all go, burning brash in the woodland, and continuing work in the coppice block, although we did find some time for some pancakes on the fire. 

Although they didn't all look quite as nice as this, everyone enjoyed them with a variety of toppings!

It was very much a team effort, Emma was in charge of the important batter, and spooning it into the hot pan.

Brian was our master fire manager, keeping the temperature just right(ish) for the pancakes!

The group of children were eagerly anticipating a pancake flip, thankfully the one photographed didn't end up on the floor…
