See if you can figure this out what these 7 words all have in common:

1. Banana
2. Dresser
3. Grammar
4. Potato
5. Revive
6. Uneven
7. Assess

Did you know…

A word that can be spelt both forwards and backwards is a Palindrome (for example “noon”). It derives from Greek roots that literally mean “running back” (palin is “again, back”and dromos “running”).

Answer to above Brain Teasers

If you take the first letter, place it on the end of the word, then spell the word backwards, it will be the same word!

Week Three of the Autumn Menu starts on Monday 25th May.
Please place any orders by lunchtime the Thursday before.
Bon Appetit!
