PINK STUMPS DAY IS BACK AT LISMORE HIGH!

Breast cancer is a cause close to the hearts of many staff, students and families at LHC. Whether we've experienced it ourselves or watched someone we love go through it, we know just how important awareness, support and fundraising can be.

Did you know that over 20,000 Australians are diagnosed with breast cancer every year? That's around 55 people every single day.

This year, we're once again raising money for the McGrath Foundation through our Pink Stumps cricket match and school BBQ.

Last year was our biggest and most successful fundraiser, and we're hoping to make an even greater impact this year!

Please consider donating through the link below. Every dollar counts, and together, our little school community can make a big difference! https://www.pinkisthecolour.com.au/fundraisers/LismoreHighCampus/pink-stumps-day

Dear Year 12 2026,

After today, and after your exams, you are set free into the world to finally begin choosing your own path.

You might choose work. You might choose more study. You might travel, stay close to home, chase a dream you’ve had forever, or discover a completely new one along the way.

But whatever you choose, don’t forget to live.

Fall in love — with people, with places, with music, with books, with ideas, with hobbies, with careers, and with versions of yourself you haven’t even met yet.

Laugh until your stomach hurts. Find people who make ordinary days feel important. Go places you’ve never been. Try things you’re terrible at. Celebrate the little wins. Take photos, but sometimes forget to take photos because you’re too busy enjoying the moment.

Change your mind. Then change it again.

Choose a career and realise it isn’t for you. Start something and decide not to finish it. Take the long way around. Begin again at 20, 25, 30, 40 or 70. There is no rule that says the person you decide to be at 18 is the person you have to be forever.

Nothing is locked in. Nothing is set in concrete.

Life is messy. Plans fall apart. New ones appear. Sometimes the things you thought you wanted won’t be what you want at all, and sometimes the best parts of your life will come from things you never planned for.

You are going to grow and change so much. Let yourself.

Be curious. Be kind. Make mistakes. Say sorry when you need to. Stand up for yourself. Tell the people you love that you love them. Laugh at yourself. Ask for help. Take chances. Make memories. Find the things that make you feel alive and make room for them.

School has spent years asking you, “What do you want to be when you grow up?”

You don’t need to have the answer.

You just need to go out there and find out.

Good luck, Year 12. The world is yours now.

Go and live a life that is completely, wonderfully, messily yours.

🩷 WE ARE AT IT AGAIN, LHC! 🩷

Next term, LHC will be holding our annual Pink Stumps Day on Monday of Week 5, raising funds and awareness for breast cancer.

This is a cause that is incredibly important to our staff, students and wider community. So many of us have been impacted by breast cancer, whether personally or through a family member, friend or loved one.

In Australia, 1 in 7 women will be diagnosed with breast cancer in their lifetime, and around 56 Australians are diagnosed every single day.

Behind every one of those statistics is a person, a family and a community. That’s why days like this matter. 🩷

Please help us make a difference by donating through our fundraising link below. Every donation, big or small, helps us work towards a future where fewer families have to face breast cancer.

Get your pink ready, LHC! 🏏🩷 More information about Pink Stumps Day coming soon!
