Kinross Wolaroi School held a leukemia foundation fundraiser on Tuesday.
IT teacher Simon Lun, who underwent treatment for leukemia last year, said the students raised valuable awareness of the disease throughout the school community.
"Vanity is a big issue [as a teenager] but they’re putting it aside,” Mr Lun said.
“When I was diagnosed, the doctor asked me if I knew what leukemia was and I didn’t know. The more people that know, the better.”
Maths teacher Allen Grant received treatment for leukemia in 2013. “[Mr Lun and I] have both experienced leukemia first had and know what takes place,” Mr Grant said.
“To see what they are doing is fantastic.”
