Library Book Donation Thanks
Hello from Coburg High School Library. I wish to sincerely thank all those wonderful families and individuals out there who have donated books to the library. Your generosity has been very much appreciated and valued. It is heartwarming to witness such a wonderful community coming together in this venture we are undertaking here at the library.
It has now become a central figure of the school, a place of sanctuary, creativity and best of all, fun! Again, thank you all. While the library is beginning to hold a respectable collection, we still require further book donations from the community. We have some very voracious readers here. If you or anybody you know have books you wish to donate, please think of us here at the library. I am more than happy to discuss the collection if you are unsure what to donate.
Thanks from your library team at CHS.

Coburg High School Commemorative Book
The commemorative publication 'Loyal in All: Centenary of Coburg High School 1916 - 2016' is an important publication on the history of our school and was written by two of our alumni, Elisabeth Grove and Laura Donati. Copies are available for purchase at the school reception, until stocks run out. The book provides a fascinating and comprehensive history of Coburg High School from its establishment in 1916 on Bell Street through to our re-established Coburg High School here on Urquhart Street.
For more information about our alumni, there is a dedicated website run by a committee of former students:
