Junior School raises over $9,000 for charities

By Ms Tracey Markovic, Assistant Head of Junior School Operations

We are thrilled to share that, through our Radford Reaches Out fundraising efforts, the Junior School community has raised more than $9,000 this year!

We extend a heartfelt thank you to all our families for their incredible generosity and support.

Students from Pre-Kindergarten—Year 6 had the opportunity to nominate charities they were passionate about supporting.

Posters in the Junior School help students track their target.


Some of the chosen charities include:

  • OzHarvest
  • UNICEF
  • Ronald McDonald House Canberra
  • Kids Giving Back
  • World Wildlife Fund
  • Landcare
  • Compassion Australia
  • Orange Sky

As part of our ongoing commitment to giving back, six dedicated Junior School staff members volunteered their Friday evening to cook meals for families staying at Ronald McDonald House Canberra.

Through the Meals from the Heart program, our staff served up a mouth-watering menu featuring crispy bang bang chicken strips, roasted vegetables with halloumi, feta and cranberry rigatoni salad and deconstructed tiramisu.

It was a meal enjoyed by all and a meaningful way to support families facing medical challenges.
