A number of staff members got into the spirit of Melbourne Cup Day by coming along to school dressed in their finest outfits and fascinators. Even Mr Kaveny and Mr Petersen donned their best ties to look the part. Some students watched the big race from the MPC and there were a number of classes who ran their own little sweeps with lollies for the various prizes. Mrs Morgan took time out of her busy day to put together a sweep for the staff and there were some lucky winners there. Mr Gillespie picked the winner in Vow and Declare who is part owned by the Principal of Assumption College at Warwick.
