Our dragonfly
Like our Monash Children’s Hospital dandelion, the dragonfly featured on our new hospital symbolises hope, strength, change and resilience.
The dragonfly rests on our new Monash Children’s Hospital, just as a real dragonfly would rest lightly on one’s shoulder – a gentle reminder to reconnect with our strength, courage and happiness.

Our beautiful dragonfly lights up at night.
