St Mary’s RSL Sub-Branch Scholarship Presentation 2012

St Mary's RSL Sub-Branch Scholarship Presentation 2012

It was an amazing night of nights at St Mary's RSL on Thursday 22nd November for a select group of Year 10 students from schools in the local area.  St Marys RSL Sub-Branch was celebrating their 10th anniversary of the Colin Shepherd OAM Memorial School Scholarship.

 

The celebration honoured past and present winners of the scholarship. Mrs Judy Shepherd was there to honour her late husband and to also present awards to this year's scholarship winners. Over the last ten years over $250 000 had been given to students.

 

Families, students and teachers enjoyed a light supper and were thoroughly entertained by the host and President Ron Kelly among other partons who shared stories with us. Past winners also engaged the audience and told us how their scholarship enriched their life, education and careers. 

 

The students challenge was to present a research project that investigated an aspect of Australian's involvement in the military service. Topic areas were set by the members of the Sub-Branch.

Delphia Asemaga, Maaz Ansari and Lucinda Warren of St Clair High School were the three scholarship winners for 2012. The students were awarded with $2500, $1500 and $1000 respectively. An honour shield was presented to the Principal of the school Chris Presland by Greg Davis, a patron of the Sub-Branch.
