Student achievements

Well done to Arushi (Y2) who featured as a Recycling Hero in the Federation of Indian Associations of the ACT’s (FINACT) newsletter recently. Arushi has been recycling bottles and cans to raise money for medical equipment to aid Covid-19 patients in India and for the construction of the Canberra Hindu Mandir in Moncrieff.

Sasha (Y12) represented the Young Matildas football team in the 2022 Pacific Women’s Four Nations Tournament recently. Australia defeated the Solomon Islands 2-1, defeated Fiji 3-0 and representing the ‘Green’ team in a friendly match against ‘Gold’, Sasha scored a hattrick on route to a 4-0 victory.

Lijia (Y7) recently represented the ACT 12&U team at the School Sport ACT 2022 Golf Championships. Lijia and her team finished as the Ambrose net winners, and Lijia also received a Sportsmanship pin at the closing ceremony.

Congratulations to Hannah (Y10) who has been shortlisted for the John Bell Scholarship after a highly successful monologue audition. She is one of only 18 students from around Australia that are being considered for this prestigious opportunity, which may see her travel to Sydney to spend a week training with Bell Shakespeare, Australian’s national theatre company that specialises in Shakespeare’s works.

At the Duke of Edinburgh (DoE) ACT Gold Ceremony on Thursday six students were recognised for their accomplishments, out of a total of 14 people receiving awards. Year 12 students Amy, Lize, Susannah and Cheryl and two of our past students Elise Finney (2021) and Rhea Laverock (2018) received their Gold award.
