SIX Senior 3 pupils from Cransley School in Great Budworth have been shortlisted for the semi-finals of this year’s Great Cheshire Pie Maker Competition with Reaseheath College.

Following the theme of sporting success in 2014 Cransley pupils have been selected as only one of three semi-finalist groups from the 30 schools from across the region which entered the competition.

Reaseheath College judge Nick Blakemore visited Cransley School for a tasting session and semi-final judging, and was treated to the following entries from the Senior 3 girls.
