Funky hair for Kids in Care
THERE was plenty of colourful and creative hair styles across classrooms at Warrnambool Primary last Friday.
Students from all year levels were happy to swap their more traditional hair styles for colourful creations which included everything from rainbow creatures and cupcake cases through to glitter bows and noodle cups.
The day coincided with the launch of Brophy’s ‘Funky Hair for Kids in Care’ campaign
According to communications coordinator at Brophy Family and Youth Services, Nick Ansell, the campaign is all about supporting children living in foster, kinship and residential care.
“Brophy is asking schools, workplaces and community groups to whip up their funkiest, most fun hairstyles throughout the month of October and donate a gold coin to help kids in care stay connected to their schools, hobbies and culture,” Mr Ansell said.
Students at Warrnambool Primary School raised just over $323 on the day for the campaign.
