STUDENT NEWS

Harvey G (5/6M) is coordinating a collection of lip balms to support Koala Kids Foundation who support kids undergoing cancer treatment.

Each year Koala Kids Foundation distributes thousands of tubes of scented lip balms to the Children's Cancer Centres and 24 other hospitals and family support facilities across Victoria and Tasmania.

Their stock of scented lip balms is running very low.

Why lip balms matter:

Chemotherapy often causes dry, cracked lips, and having a sweet-scented balm brings both relief and comfort.
Anaesthetic technicians also use them to mask the smell of anaesthetic gases. Letting children choose a fun scent helps them feel calmer before procedures.

If you would like to donate any lip balms, please either give them directly to Harvey or to the office before Friday 21st November.

Lipsmackers are the preferred brand, but any fun, scented balm is appreciated. Please avoid squeeze tubes (i.e. Carmex) and lip balms without any scent, as we aren't able to use these.
