Our Lady of Good Counsel School, Deepdene, student Marcus Messner is no stranger to the artistic spotlight. The Grade 6 student, who created the winning design for Melbourne’s 180th birthday card two years ago, has won the ‘Safe Travel on Metro Trains’ poster competition. Marcus’ winning design depicts a train from the past with one of our modern trains, with the message that rail safety never goes out of date.

 

Marcus was presented with a PlayStation 4 for his efforts, and has decided to include it in a raffle to raise funds to go towards books for the school library and a turtle for the science room. Well done, Marcus.

Rail Safety Week ran from 14 to 20 August.
