Staff raised $515 towards the Cancer Council, to support cancer research and prevention.
Although the event has been run annually for some time, organiser and school admin officer Katherine McNamara said the addition of a baking competition last year added to the fun.
“People get involved and they want to know who’s putting cakes in,” she said.
“I think it's a really good cause and anything we can do to help research.”
Prac teacher Tiffanie Jones was the proud recipient of the coveted golden rolling pin trophy for her carrot cake, which won the cake section and was dubbed overall winner by judge Kim Kelleher.
It was great to get everyone in the workplace involved, and in something other than schoolwork.

Made by John Foulcher for the inaugural baking competition last year, Tiffanie’s name will take a place of honour on the back as this year’s baking queen.
“It’s a very unique trophy,” Katherine laughed.
Kim Eddy won the biscuit and slices competition, while Delysse Coghlan was awarded best presentation for her impressive flower pot cake, complete with chocolate soil and a snail.
“It was great to get everyone in the workplace involved, and in something other than schoolwork,” Katherine said.
