Schools Get Artistic Before the Stradbroke
The 2011 Breakfast with the Stars saw some very happy children this morning with representative from over 20 schools presenting their painted horse to our panel of judges in the search of $4,000.
Each year local primary schools are invited to design and paint a life size fibreglass horse sculpture with a design that represents the Brisbane Racing Carnival. IT was clear form an array of ideas - just how the children and teachers interperet different elements of the famous Brisbane Racing Carnival.
Brisbane Racing Carnival Ambassador Sofie Formica, jockey Shane Scriven and Minister for Racing Tim Mulherin, looked over the 23 horses - and the competition was fierce.
The $4000 Grand Prize was awarded to.... with each school entry receiving $500 just for participating - proudly supported by our great sponsors AAMI.
