Hair today - gone tomorrow

There’s a been a few hair raising experiences of late for students and teachers at Central Coast Grammar School – but it’s all for a good cause!

Cheered on by supportive classmates, Tarni Dilger (Year 5) is rocking a new hairdo after taking the bold and brave move to shave her head for The World’s Greatest Shave.

While the first glimpse in the mirror was met with slight shock, Tarni was proud to have put herself out there and raise money for charity. “Over the past month, I’ve raised over $1,200,” said Tarni. “The money I raise will go towards helping Aussie families facing blood cancer get the emotional and practical support they need.”

"I took part in the World’s Greatest Shave to raise awareness and to help people realise how lucky we are to even have the privilege of having hair," said Tarni. "I wanted to understand what it’s like to not have hair and show my support and raise awareness."
