Congratulations to our Aussie of the Month - Grace S in 1/2Y. Grace is very proactive in her friendships and supporting other students. She is always happy to work with anyone in the room in partner work, and ensures everyone's voice is heard in small group work. She is a very diligent student who always completes class work to a high standard, and is always happy to help others in the class. She always has a smile on her face.
