Movember at AISHK

Movember is a tradition at AISHK. Each year staff raise awareness about the message behind growing a moustache in November, coming together for this important campaign. This year, the initiative was organised by Secondary Teacher Peter Pulsford.

Peter shared, "Men suffer, sometimes in silence, from mental health issues and in particular, male health issues like prostate and testicular cancer. It’s important for us to unite for this cause.  It is also a chance for men to see what their bodies can do! Monitoring how much grey they have in their moustaches - is fun, but there is a serious message."

This year, men from across the school joined in. The before-and-after moustache photos sparked plenty of laughs and camaraderie. Prefects Isaac Yip, Dora Hao, Justin Yu, Ryan Zhu, and Kristy Ng also played a key role, presenting at both Secondary and Primary assemblies to highlight the importance of Movember and encourage open discussion.
