The recipients of the 2023 Long Tan Awards were announced at this week’s St Peter’s Campus Assembly.

Millie Terracini of Year 10 and Sophie Vassallo of Year 12 received the Long Tan Leadership Award, an award that is presented to students in those year groups who demonstrate leadership and teamwork within school and out in the broader community.

Riley Mill (Year 10) and Ari Gilchrist (Year 12) received the ADF Future Innovators Award, which recognises the innovation of students who study subjects in the areas of science, technology, engineering and mathematics (STEM).

Both awards honour the legacy of Long Tan and the leadership and sacrifice of all men and women who have given their lives in service to their country. They also acknowledge that leadership is demonstrated each and every day by people in their communities, workplaces and through innovation in learning.

Congratulations to these students on this significant achievement.
