Orangutan Bake Off Prize Winners
Mon 23 Jan 2017Back in October 2016, Clare Mount held their third fundraising day in as many years, to raise money for Chester Zoo’s charity, Go Orange for Orangutans, which is part of their Act for Wildlife campaign. As part of our day, we held a Bake Off Competition.
The Orangutan Foundation UK held their Orangutan Awareness week from 7th-14th November 2016. As part of this, they launched a ‘Great British Bake Off’ Competition. Mrs Croucher sent photos of the cakes from our own school Bake Off in to the competition.
