Students support Relay for Life

A group of students from Ettalong Public School shaved their hair in support of the local Cancer Relay for Life on March 31.

Students from the school were asked to donate $1 to watch the volunteers be given a number one hair cut by their parents.

The students were also treated to entertainment by a variety of performers and had the chance to win lucky door prizes.

Two of the volunteer students, Joe and Joel, reported that although their new look felt a bit strange, it felt good to know that they were helping people.

Both boys have known people with cancer and said that this had motivated them to participate.

The event raised roughly $350 for the Cancer Relay for Life.
