Students coin hope for those with cancer

Students at Noosa District State High School, spanning from year 7 to 12, have banded together to make a meaningful impact through their participation in the lead up to The World’s Greatest Shave Fundraiser.

Over the course of two weeks, students diligently collected coins during their Home Group time, fostering a spirit of unity and competition among the year levels to create the most impressive coin line.

At the Pomona Campus, the enthusiasm was electric as year 7 and 8 student leaders gathered in the library on Friday 8 March to display their collected coins.

Year 7, in particular, stood out with an impressive line stretching over 8m long. Among them, Year 7A shone bright, amassing an impressive $82.35 in silver coins alone.

Reflecting on the achievement, junior secondary campus coordinator, Callum Gordon, expressed his admiration.

“It’s truly heartening to witness our young students rallying behind a cause that supports those affected by cancer,” he said.

Giving students the opportunity to fundraise and be part of a national event, is one example of how NDSHS is creating empathic and compassionate learners.
