Morning tea raises $915

Residents at Deepwater Court, Woy Woy, have raised $915 during Australia's Biggest Morning Tea, according to manager Ms Val Lomas.

"For our biggest morning tea, some of my residents baked beautiful sponge cakes, fruit cakes, slices, scones and biscuits," Ms Lomas said.

"They were all displayed on a table then they were judged."

The four winners were Eileen Russell for the prettiest cake, Millie Bidder for her "famous" scones, Betty Huntington for her moist fruit cake and Maureen Ayers for her "lovely" jelly slice.

All winners received a box of chocolates.

"After the judging, we then auctioned all the goodies.

"We also received some generous donations from some of our residents bringing our total raised to $915," Ms Lomas said.

"How fantastic is that for a small retirement village.

"We have such generous residents; they are always there to support the needy," said Ms Lomas.
