Touring now

Our ANZAC Premier's Scholar

Our very own Tiana Wasif, Year 11, was selected to represent NSW as one of twenty students selected to tour as part of the Premier’s Anzac Memorial Scholarship.  Tiana endured a rigorous process prior to being selected as the Scholar from the school which included designing a project and partaking in an interview in front of a panel.

 

The NSW Office for Veterans Affairs (OVA) administers the Premier's Anzac Memorial Scholarship (PAMS) which funds an international study tour for a group of young people. Scholars learn about the causes and effects of world conflicts and visit the  battlefields where Anzacs have fought, to learn about and commemorate their service. 

 

This year,  the Scholarship  funded a study tour for 20 students to travel to Germany, France and Belgium during September and October. Students visited the battlefields where Australians fought to learn about the causes of the First and Second World Wars, and to commemorate their service.

 

Tiana has just returned to Australia and will share her experiences with our school community in our next school newsletter. We are all keen to learn from her experiences - welcome back Tiana!
