Students Brave the Shave At the end of Term 1, 56 brave Senior School students took part in the Word’s Greatest Shave by cutting or shaving their hair. This year's campaign has raised nearly $39,000 for the Leukaemia Foundation – smashing the $30,000 target. To adhere to COVID-safe guidelines, the usual event on the Quad with Scotch College was replaced with a remote version wherein students from Years 7 to 11 were able to cut their hair from home and send their hair in zip lock bags to the School. Students in Year 12 had a special event outside the Lighthouse where they were able to come together to cut or shave their hair. Among the many honourable participants, Year 12 students Neave Brookes and Olive Erickson raised a sum of over $4,500 by shaving their heads entirely. Lauren Ryding (Year 12) also raised a whopping $3,500 and shaved her hair at home.
