Bringing the best of street performances to their school grounds, students from Caroline Springs’ Creekside College participated in an energy-filled busking event to raise money for an important cause on April 3.
Held each year for nearly two decades, Busking Day is the school’s annual fundraiser for the Royal Children’s Hospital’s Good Friday Appeal.
Creekside College teacher Katia Gerovasilis said the event was organised by students to make a difference in the lives of kids the hospital assists.
“This is an important event in our school calendar because it’s a great opportunity for us to contribute positively to our community,” she said.
“It’s also a lot of fun for both staff and students and a great way for students to showcase their artistic performance talents.
“Students work with their teachers to create a festival-like atmosphere by setting up a range of stalls, activities, games and performances for the school community to enjoy.”
This year the school is hoping to raise $8000 for the hospital, and Ms Gerovasilis said the community could help students and teachers reach that goal by donating online.
