I'm doing Hoops4Schools and fundraising for The BUSY School

Did you know, 1 in 5 Australian students are disengaged with their education? That means, they have disengaged from their schooling and are at risk of not completing Year 12. That's 20% of all school students...

Many of these young people have experienced bullying or have mental health challenges, problems at home or a variety of reasons that have made attending traditional school difficult. 

So, I'm sinking hoops to show my support for these students. My aim is to sink as many hoops as I can from 16 August to 5 September. I've set a target for how many baskets I will sink and how much I will fundraise for The BUSY School who are supporting young people to re-engage with their education.
