HAVE you ever had one of
those days when you just can't
do anything with your hair?
It's not something Peter
Symonds student Marianne
Weineck ever seems to have a
problem with.
The Winchester college
student got up at 3am on
Monday (July 14) to turn her hair into
a washing line for charity.
Marianne, 17, who is in her
second year of studying art
project design, maths and
French, had the idea to raise
funds for a trip to Moldova,
where she will join others
from her church which has
links to a project to build a
school.
The two-week trip in August
is organised by Mission
Direct.
She said: "The project has
been running for a few
months already, and we will
be the last people going out
there, so we may get to see
the school being finished and
refurbished.

"If so, then we will see what
we can do in other ways to
help the community."
Commuters were so
impressed with her hairstyle
on Monday as she made her
way to the college, that
Marianne collected £50 to top
up donations from her fellow
students for the £800 trip.
It isn't the first time she has
created some imaginative
hair designs.
Last year she had her hair
shaped as a radish to raise
cash for Comic Relief.
Marianne hopes to do an
art foundation year and
possibly study hat design at
university when she leaves
Peter Symonds.
