They might not last until Halloween, but that probably won't stop these children from proudly keeping their prize pumpkins.
Pupils from across the county and beyond gathered at Waterperry Gardens, near Wheatley, today for its pumpkin challenge cup with the winner weighing in at a massive 22kg.
The winning specimen belonged to children from Ickford Primary School, near Thame.
Susie Hunt, spokesman for the centre, said: "The project fitted in beautifully with their national curriculum studies into healthy eating."
