Before and after, photos of Luigi, who in the Christmas holidays had a trim and donated his locks to The Little Princesses Trust.
This charity uses real hair to make free wigs for children who have lost their hair through cancer. What a wonderful thing to have done!
Donations to the charity in support of Luigi are very welcome.

Well done to our Year 10/ 11 Basketball team. It was their first match and, in several cases, their debut for Wadham in any sport.
We came up against a strong, experienced team from Bucklers' Mead who deserved victory, but Wadham still managed to score 19 points and we "learnt more than we lost".
Basketball training continues during Monday lunchtimes in the New Sports Hall

Congratulations to our Year 10 football team, who beat Heathfield School 2-1 in the County Cup.
They now march on to the quarter finals. Player of the Match - Syrus!
