Culling embarks on her second UCI junior track cycling world championships in Switzerland on Wednesday (early Thursday morning AEST time).
The school decided to throw its support behind Culling from halfway across the world, giving her any boost they can to do her best against the top young cyclists in the world.
“Being a local sportsperson competing at such a high level we wanted to do our part and do what we can to support Alice in her cycling adventures,” Moyston Primary principal Anthony Cain said.
Students dressed up in their best green and gold attire, with ‘Go Alice’ stickers and signs seen throughout the school.
The school also raised crucial funds for Culling, bringing in more than $600 which will be presented to Culling when she arrives back home in the coming weeks.
Culling will compete in the team pursuit, individual pursuit and madison events.
The championships will be broadcast at www.uci.ch/track/videos/
Coverage of the first day of racing will begin from 1.30am on Thursday morning Australian time.
