RAPS leaders join the hunt for the world’s funniest fart
Isle of Thanet Gazette
|June 27, 2025
CHILDREN at Ramsgate Arts Primary have been challenged to get to the bottom of an unusual task - to help judge the world's funniest fart.
-
The school’s junior leadership team have been listening to a range of recorded entries for the latest madcap competition, run by Margate’s innovative Crab Museum.
Scientist Chase Coley, one of the museum's directors, visited the school this month to share the top-secret fart shortlist.
The children took their judging job very seriously and used a fart-o-meter to gauge which were the silliest.
