Sunbury’s best bakers will be descending on Goonawarra Neighbourhood House on for the Great Goonawarra Bake-off.
Expect the best cakes and slices served alongside a cup of tea or coffee as the house vies for the baking champion, all while raising funds for a good cause.
The bake-off is part of the house’s Biggest Morning Tea to raise money for the Cancer Council.
Goonawarra Neighbourhood House president Isabella Rosinsky said she was approached by a volunteer receptionist at the house who wanted to host the house’s first morning tea.
“She said it was an issue close to her heart because of family members that have had cancer, and I was very happy to support it because I myself have had a bit of breast cancer,” she said.
“I thought lets go for it, let’s put it in and I wanted to encourage her to take ownership of something at the house.”
Ms Rosinsky said the bake-off is the house’s spin on the morning tea, giving something extra special for attendees to look forward to.
“We have a lot of retired women who attend the house and I thought it was a great opportunity to encourage people to bring in some of their baking and also raise money at the same time,” she said.
Everyone is welcome to attend the morning tea, on Tuesday, June 10, at 11am at Goonawarra Neighbourhood House.
