Rebecca Devries, left, and Jen Baker, both Grade 8
students at Exeter Public School, were among 30
students at the school who made replicas of Exet-
er buildings out of graham wafers. The buildings,
which are decorated and covered in icing, took
about four days for the students to finish. Devries
and Baker decided to build the Old Towne Hall.
Other "wafer buildings" included car Tots and the
Post Office. Students presented the buildings last
Thursday to the Exeter Villa, whose residents will
snack on them.
