Aussies of the Month July

AJ CALLAHAN - 6H

It is often stated that you can’t put an old head on young shoulders. Understanding and confidence is generally something to be earned through the benefit of experience, yet every now and then life throws up an individual that proves to be an exception to the rule.

AJ has the rare ability to walk a fine line between work and play, resulting in a young man who makes life enjoyable just by being in his presence.

Empathetic and inclusive, AJ’s leadership is magnetic by nature and sees peers naturally gravitate towards his suggestions and direction. 

When this leadership is then coupled with an industrious, inquisitive, resilient and proactive work-ethic, it makes for a pretty special role-model.

Congratulations on all you have achieved AJ, you are - and will continue to be, and much deserved Aussie of the month.

WILLA SANTILLI-RHODEN - 6L

A thoughtful and humble young lady, Willa approaches all she does with quiet determination and care, preferring to let her actions speak louder than words. Willa’s warm smile and kind heart brighten the days of everyone she meets, making her a valued friend and classmate.  Willa shows persistence and adaptability as she works towards her goals, listening thoughtfully to feedback, using it to improve and grow. Her flair for art is matched by her lively sense of humour and quick thinking, which add warmth and fun to our learning environment. Willa sets a wonderful example for her peers and truly embodies the spirit of the Aussie of the Month Award. 

Congratulations Willa.
