Next week will see a sea of Beanies being worn at Mueller, as our annual week for Brain Cancer awareness rolls out. Each and every morning next week from Monday students will be able to purchase beanies from a range of styles and colours to raise awareness and funds for the Mark Hughes Foundation and wear them all week.
Beanie Stalls will be open and in full swing before school outside the Chaplains office and on Level 2 of MPAC. They will remain open on Level 2 throughout each morning tea and lunch time. Beanies are selling for $10 (plain) or $15 (beanie with pom pom). The Beanie Stall will cater for both cash and Eftpos. For those not able to get to the Beanie Stall, Friday 4 August will be an opportunity for students to still participate by wearing their favourite beanie to school accompanied by a gold coin donation.

The week is special to the Mueller College as we remember those in our community who are either suffering or have lost the fight against Brain Cancer. Highlighting this will be Tuesday’s Asher Memorial Basketball game between staff and Year Eleven students. This annual game is an entertaining and exciting lunchtime event.
Additionally, each beanie purchase or cash donation will allow students to submit nominations for the teacher they would most like to see take the icy plunge in Friday’s BIG CHILL event. Serving as the week’s culminating celebration, the BIG CHILL will see a number of Primary and Secondary staff having to slide in full costume down the slide into iced filled water. Beanies for Brain Cancer Week promises to be bigger and better.
