St George's Superstars

Stars in our eyes

Sophie Bell

Year 8

Shaving off all your hair is no mean feat but Sophie is barely nervous about her commitment in the World’s Greatest Shave.

She remembers like it was yesterday when her Year 5 teacher shaved her head for the World’s Greatest Shave – so she decided to follow suit. 

“My teacher did it for a few years in a row, that is part of my inspiration,’’ Sophie said. “I am a bit nervous about shaving my whole head and worried my head might get sunburnt, but one of my friends is doing it too and it is for a good cause, so it will all be ok.’’

Well done, Sophie and the other St George’s Superstars who are shaving their heads or cutting off at least 20cm of locks. We’ll follow your progress and be right behind you on the day!
