Hallowe’en with Ben Jonson School & Magic Breakfast

Posted on October 31, 2014 by admin

When we wanted a super-scary pumpkin designed for Hallowe’en we knew straight away who we were gonna call – the creative kids at Ben Jonson School’s Magic Breakfast club, who we first met when they helped us to celebrate our first birthday back in July.

A competition ran at breakfast club during October to draw the scariest face and the winner, Ridwan, and two runners up Summayah and Fatih (a third runner-up, Saif, sadly couldn’t come) joined us during half-term for afternoon tea and the grand unveiling of Ridwan’s pumpkin, brought to life by the clever team in the kitchen!

Grown-ups from Magic Breakfast and Ben Jonson School, and of course aqua shard, helped to ensure that everyone had a fun afternoon, with the children enjoying the sandwiches, scones and sweet treats from our special Paddington Afternoon Tea. You can see many more photos from the day, as well as the runners-up’s amazing entries, on our Facebook page.
