Join us on Thursday 6th March for World Book Day as we celebrate with the inaugural Great Nuneaton Academy Bake Off!

This is your chance to combine culinary creativity with literary inspiration. We invite both staff and students to enter by creating any type of food that symbolises a book element – whether that be the cover, a main character, or an iconic scene. Imagine crafting Severus Snape Sandwiches, Cat in the Hat Cupcakes or Boy in the Dress Burgers!

Please note, judging will be solely on appearance (indeed, you should never judge a book by its cover), so you can take your delightful creation home at the end of the day. Exciting prizes include House Points and the coveted STAR BAKER WOODEN SPOON.

Let your imagination and skills shine – we can’t wait to see your edible tributes to the world of books!
