William Angliss Institute celebrates annual Hot Cross Bun Day

For the past 20 years, the Institute has donated freshly baked hot cross buns each year to Pied Piers for volunteers working at the Royal Children’s Hospital Good Friday appeal.

Centre Manger for Food Trades and Culinary Arts Mark Agius said the activity “provides a positive learning experience centered on real-world production for the students involved. In addition, knowing firsthand how important the people behind the scenes [at the Royal Children’s Hospital] are, it is great to support their efforts in a small way with a morning tea delivery of our hot cross buns.”

As part of the Hot Cross Bun Day celebrations, the Institute acknowledged the 54 students from 2017 and 2018 who as scholarship recipients were recognised for their outstanding passion and commitment to the industry.

The William Angliss Institute Foundation with additional support from industry partners and sponsors provides educational opportunities and financial assistance to support those excelling in their studies and training as well as those where financial assistance may support them to complete their studies and achieve their career ambitions.

Institute CEO Nicholas Hunt said,  “With the support of our partners, in 2017 the Foundation doubled the opportunities on offer in scholarships and bursaries as in previous years, with more now available for commencing students and part-time students.”
