Junior School Churunga House | Crazy Hair Day

MLC Junior School enthusiastically participated in the World’s Greatest Shave, raising funds for the Leukaemia Foundation. Students, staff, and families came together, shaving heads or dyeing hair to show support. Alongside the shave, MLC School organised a toy drive for the children at Westmead Hospital showcasing our commitment to giving back. As part of our long-standing MLC School values, these efforts fostered solidarity, empathy, and respect within our community, embodying our school’s spirit of generosity and compassion.

We hosted Crazy Hair Day, and the students raised more than $1500 for this very worthwhile charity. We collected 25 boxes of toys for Westmead Hospital. Teachers in the Junior School coloured, cut or shaved their hair at our lunch time event in front of the entire Junior School. A very brave student, Peita (Year 4), also cut her hair. These lengths of hair have been donated to make wigs. Well done to the Churunga Teachers, Captains, Monitors and Students for your hard work and thank you to the Junior School teachers, students and families for your creative hair styles, your participation and generous donations of money and toys.
