Cupcake Competition
We invite all students to participate in the Cupcake Competition!
These cupcakes must be decorated by the young bakers and submitted for judging the morning of the 27th of October. Students are to bring 4 cupcakes to school on Friday morning on a paper plate clearly labelled with their name and class.
The bakeoff will be divided and judged in three sections Kindergarten- 2, Year 3- Year 4 and Year 5-Year 6. The cupcakes will be judged on taste, texture and presentation.
The top 6 cupcakes from each year group will be moved through to the final round which will be announced at the Spring Carnival where they will be judged. The top 3 from each year group will be selected and awarded gold, silver and bronze medallions along with a special gift for all their hard work!
All the remaining cupcakes made by the children will be available to purchase at our bakeoff stand at the carnival.
There are 3 rules:
- No Nuts
- The cupcake must be baked in your oven and can be a packet mix.
- Must be decorated by the entrant
