National Bandanna Day
A big thank you from the Student Voice and Leadership Team to all who supported National Bandanna Day on October 24. We raised $899 in support of Canteen - vital funds for supporting young people affected by cancer.
It was great to see everyone wearing their bandannas on the day in an array of different ways!
Pat Cronin Foundation – Be Wise Walk
On November 24, Eltham High School will be participating in the Be Wise Walk, in support of the Pat Cronin Foundation. This event aims to raise awareness about the devastating impact of the coward punch while fostering a stronger sense of community.
Bring your friends, family, and pets to take on the 8km walk from Heidelberg to Lower Plenty. We are hoping to walk as a school community, showing our commitment and appreciation for the work of the Pat Cronin Foundation in educating our young people.

If you can make it on the day, you can make a donation to our team via the website too.
