Worlds Greatest Shave

Friday 22nd April was a great day for Wantirna College and for the Leukaemia Foundation. Hairspray was sprayed, money was donated and hair was lost. Yes, around the School, energy was buzzing when the shaving first took place.

Firstly, alongside the Hairspray stand, Mr. Saccardo was the first volunteer, and had his hair completely shaved off! MC Scott Theakstone also attempted to shave off the teachers beard with a shaving blade, which was moderately successful, which, at any rate, will take a while to fully grow back.

Up next to face the blade were Senior school students Tom Blandford and John Agcaoili. Not to be topped by their teacher, Aaron and Tom received free haircuts, at some stages by friends and family, with their beloved mops of hair delicately shaved off in the name of cancer.

However, the highlight of the afternoon had to come from SRC Publicity Co-Leader and MC Scott Teakstone who, in a painful turn of events, decided to wax his legs. Not one would do - four waxing papers were placed on Scott’s leg, and despite the searing pain, Scott pulled a straight face in the name of the Leukaemia Foundation. In all, the day raised in excess of $450! Yes, we're sure the efforts the SRC put in to run the event and the guts the now shaved volunteers had will be appreciated by all those hard workers trying to prevent Leukaemia from harming the world.
