Something you knead to know: Bad Pun epidemic sweeps Nepean College

A epidemic of bad punning has swept across Nepean College since work began in the Fine Arts section last week on a large mural made of toast.

First to show symptoms was Eoin Ocaoimh, Head Teacher of Adult Basic Education, when he 'hoped the students knew which side their bread was buttered on'. This caused Technical Officer Peter Helm to state that the 'whole thing was rather crumby'. Fortunately Nicola Read, photography teacher, did not lower herself to this level as she comes from an Upper Crust family.

Fine Arts Technical Officer Ricardo Della-Ricca is demonstrating severe symptoms, and has been heard to comment that the whole thing was a tip-top idea. He did express some concerns as to whether any buns  would be included in the video documentation, and wondered if everything would jam in to the picture. 'Oh crumbs', said photography teacher Darren Edwards.

Printmaking teacher Jo Ernsten felt that all  information on the artwork should be on a kneads to know basis.

Manager of Educational Programs, Julie Fugaccia thinks the whole thing is fantoastic. Whilst thrilled with the progress of the mural, Fine Arts Head Teacher Cath Barcan has concerns that one or two students may be loafing.

With the completion of the toast mural drawing closer, anyone who is concerned they have been effected by the punning epidemic is encouraged to seek appropriate assistance. Symptoms include excessive and unexplained use of a thesaurus, and lying awake at night obsessing about bread.
