Pumpkins

Courtney and her family decided to try growing Giant Atlantic Pumpkins. They entered 3 pumpkins into the Little River Pumpkin Competition. They got 3rd for the widest pumpkin with Courntey's Pumpkin weighing 75kg, 2nd for the ugliest pumpkin and 1st for the smallest pumpkin. Courtney's dad brought 2 pumpkins along to school for us to see. The pumpkins are now living by the school gardens. We hope to chop them open, scoop out the seeds and carve the pumpkins. We hope to grow the seeds in Spring and have a school pumpkin competition. Courtney shared her experiences with The Base. (yes, we will post more pictures when we cut into the pumpkin!)
