Melbourne Cup Fashion and Snail Race

03 Nov 2015

Melbourne Cup was celebrated at school with an investigation into countries of origins for the horses, a fashion design and display of 'fascinators' or hats, such of which were really fascinating, and the somewhat exciting snail race challenge. The winning snail owned and trained by Mr Nyatoro romped (or slimed quickly) across the finishing perimeter in a scorching time of 31 seconds while other snails were somewhat more sedate in their efforts. The students missed the real race due to the excitement of the snails and the creation of artistic fashion.
