Every second year St Bede’s is privileged to take part in the CanTeen Run for a Life, which is a huge fundraising event for the charity CanTeen. Unfortunately, this year due to Covid-19 we are unable to hold the Run for a Life. However Covid-19 has not put an end to everything. We are still very excited to be holding a CanTeen Head Shave on Friday 18 September.

Any boy that is willing, is able to take part in this head shave as long as they raise a minimum of $50.

To donate to, or sign up for the CanTeen Head Shave, please follow this link to our fundraising page.

We look forward to getting as many students involved as possible in creating a bit of positivity during times of uncertainty.

What is CanTeen about?

Young people don't expect to come face-to-face with cancer, but they do. Cancer is terrifying for anyone, but for a young person already dealing with what life is throwing at them, cancer – their own or that of a family member – is an unexpected curveball. Dedicated to supporting young people aged 13-24 come to grips with the emotional and practical toll of cancer, at CanTeen we get it.
