Hair out of place in the name of charity

BAD hair was the order of the day recently when staff and students at Strathaird Primary School created some weird and wacky hairdos for charity.
On the last day of term one, teachers and students at the Narre Warren South Primary School brought out the hair spray, pipe cleaners and wigs to raise funds for cystic fibrosis.
Teacher Nicole Daviotis said students had also dressed casually and donated a gold coin each to the cause.
“We thought it was a good cause and it is a disease that affects a lot of children.
“The money will help families gain access to services and programs and also help fund research,” she said.
Ms Daviotis said many students had “teased their hair to the max” and there had also been a lot of punk hairdos, colours, plaits, wigs and afros.
A special assembly was held to award those with the craziest hairdos.
