East Loddon Cancer Awareness Week

For our Advance Community Based Project, we will be holding ‘Cancer Awareness Week’ in the 2nd week of term 4. October is Breast Cancer Awareness month and all money raised throughout the week will be donated to the Cancer Ward at Bendigo Health. We will be holding a ‘pink day’ on the 17th of October which will involve students coming dressed in pink. We will be selling pink socks and pink ribbon.

 On the 19th of October we will be holding a world’s greatest shave which will involve teachers shaving, coloring etc. their hair if we raise certain amounts. We currently have 5 staff members who are interested in shaving if we reach their target amount, which are ranging from $100 to $2000. We will be running a sausage sizzle on the day.

Cancer is something that is very close to our hearts as we have recently been affected by it at a school level. Many other people are affected too, as over 1 in 3 people are diagnosed with some form of cancer in their lifetime and everyone knows someone that is affected by it. We believe this is a very good cause and we hope you get onboard and support it by donating.

W e would really appreciate any donations, every cent counts. 

Thank you Sophie Hay, Ella Rowe and Jasmine Condliffe.
