Construction Skills 2017- Snowball Plantation

The Scouts / Guides activity day went off very well helped by good weather. We had 22 participants in 5 teams and each team built their own oven. All were successful though 2 partially collapsed when the formwork was removed, one of which was caused by Noel and so didn’t really count. The 2 teams with the collapsed ovens soon loosely rebuilt their ovens and all ovens were fired up with great success. Pizzas were cooked in all ovens and were enjoyed by all including myself, Thanks must go to York College for the loan of benches and tools, to York Handmade Brick Company for the bricks and Houghton’s for the formwork used by the teams. A good fun day enjoyed by all.
