HAILEYBURY College students are using small-change to make a big difference.
Students across its three campuses, including Keysborough, have collected more than 100,000 five-cent coins – raising $5092 for charity.
Teacher Martin Costello said students had been collecting increasing amounts for the YGap 5cent campaign over the past three years.

The silver shrapnel will be used to fund the building of primary schools in Rwanda, educating rescued sex-slave girls in Cambodia and saving fresh-food throwouts for nutritional education in Australia.
