Burdekin Christian College’s Crazy Colour Day Fundraiser

Friday 14 June saw the Burdekin Christian College painted with vibrant hues and colourful hairstyles as the school celebrated Crazy Colour Day to fundraise for the NRL Cowboys House.

The NRL Cowboys House stands as a unique, culturally safe boarding facility for young Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander men and women attending partner schools in Townsville. Over $500 was raised by the student-led group, Z-Club, with all these funds to be donated to the worthwhile cause.

The Burdekin Christian College’s Z-Club stands as a fundraising group within the school, whereby its members organised the recent Crazy Colour Day under the guidance of the school’s wonderful Chaplain, Mrs Cornelius. The Z-Club ran pop-up treat shops to raise additional funds for the NRL Cowboys House, and paired with the gold coin donations from the colourful day, the Burdekin Christian College has celebrated the conclusion of another successful student-run fundraiser.
