We will take a stand against blood cancer.
Leukaemia is a cancer of the bone marrow and blood that involves the rapid, uncontrolled growth of abnormal white blood cells, called leukaemia cells. These abnormal cells don't function properly and crowd out healthy blood cells, leading to issues with fighting infections, blood clotting, and oxygen transport.
Alfred in year 8, a dear friend to many, was recently diagnosed with Leukemia. Luckily, he is in good hands; Sydney Children's Hospital and the Ronald McDonald House Charity keep his health and well-being in check during these difficult times. Alfred is showing his strength throughout this period of his life; he is talking with friends and being grateful for the little things in life.
A group of Melrose High students have come together and will be shaving their heads to raise funds for the Leukaemia Foundation. This event will take place on the 19th of September 2025. Please show your support by donating.
