As a school that values global awareness and community connection, we believe it is important to acknowledge and support meaningful causes both around the world and close to home. Each year, Glen Waverley Primary School proudly supports the Royal Children’s Hospital Good Friday Appeal, traditionally through our much-loved ‘Coin Race’.
I would like to sincerely thank the entire Glen Waverley Primary School community for your ongoing generosity and willingness to help others. The kindness and compassion shown by our families is truly appreciated and reflects the strong sense of care within our school community. The funds will be directly transferred to the Royal Children’s Hospital, with their funds going towards world-class care, research, and equipment at the hospital and health services.
In total, this year our school raised an amazing, $2006.85 and the combined line lengths of all the coin lines came to a very impressive 268.50 meters, that’s one and a half times the length of the MCG!

The child selected to contact the Royal Children’s Hospital Good Friday Appeal and pledge our school’s donation was Krish from 6A, as his family donated the most money raised in coins. Well done and thank you Krish and his family for doing so!
Once again, well done and thank you everyone as we should be incredibly proud of our efforts, as usual!!
