Gold Creek School in Canberra, an International Baccalaureate school, hosted their first student organised ice bucket challenge. As part of her Personal Project, Year 10 student Lydia Elliott organised the challenge to fundraise for MND. On a cold winters day 12 brave teachers volunteered to have a bucket of ice cold water poured over their heads. Students donated $428 for the pleasure of seeing their teachers suffer. On the day 12 students, who had donated, had their names drawn from a list for the honour of pouring the water while the whole school watched on. Thank you to the teachers and students of Gold Creek School!
