Next the tomato passata was spooned on and spread before they added their own favourite ingredients of pepper, olives, mushrooms, ham, chicken and pepperoni. Last but not least a good sprinkling of cheese completed their handmade creations.

“The smell of cooked pizza wafted through the restaurant and made the leaders feel hungry too as 27 individually made pizzas arrived, one for each Rainbow,” said lst Midhurst Rainbow Unit leader Kirstin Bosley.

It was an even more special occasion for two new Rainbows who made their promises and received their badges watched by their families and then Sapphire (Sophie) renewed her promise as an adult marking the completion of her adult leader qualification.

“We would like to say a very big ‘thank you’ to all the staff of Midhurst Pizza Express for looking after our enthusiastic pizza makers and for kicking off Midhurst Rainbows 20th birthday celebrations,” added Kirstin.
