Crazy Hair Day
Raising money for Cystic Fibrosis
Crazy Hair Day has been a long standing tradition at BIS to raise funds for Cystic Fibrosis.
Cystic fibrosis (CF) is one of the most common, autosomal recessive, life-limiting diseases affecting children and adults in Australia. It causes thick, sticky mucus which affects the lungs and digestive system.
At present, there is no cure for CF. Now that the CFTR faulty gene has been identified, global research is moving towards finding ways of repairing or possibly replacing it.
If you and your child REALLY REALLY want to do it at home instead then that’s fine
BUT
you MUST still bring the two gold coin donation to school!
Please encourage your child to consider finding the donation out of their own money by watching the Video above to understand CF better.
