Pupils in pyjamas pay for the privelege

For some people, turning up to school in your pyjamas is the plot line of a bad dream.

But 600 girls at St Hilda's in Mosman Park wore their pyjamas to school on purpose on Thursday.

It was all part of the fun of a project for Princess Margaret Hospital, the organisation chosen by the school's Year 10s as the beneficiary of their fund-raising efforts this year.

Laryssa Dowell (16), the school's community service captain, said many students had a strong connection to the hospital because it had helped them, their family or friends.

Students, and some teachers, raised about $1200 by paying $2 for their pyjama privileges.
