yOUth OF thE yEAr - cOrriMAL LiONs cLUB<br />

On Wednesday 17th November two Yr 10 students from the <strong>College</strong> participated<br />

in the annual Lions Youth of the Year Competition.<br />

Breana Macpherson-Rice and Jozo Frankovic were individually interviewed<br />

by a panel of esteemed community members and later on in the evening delivered<br />

a prepared speech and answered impromptu questions.<br />

Both students spoke extremely well and were a credit to themselves, their<br />

families and the <strong>College</strong>. Jozo Frankovic was announced the winner of the<br />

Public Speaking section and declared the Overall Winner for the evening. He<br />

will go on to represent us at the regional finals in February 2011.<br />

Congratulations to both students and our best wishes to Jozo for the Lions<br />

Regional Finals.<br />

Year 12 News<br />

We congratulate Nikita Karr (pictured left) on winning a $25,000<br />

scholarship to study at Billy Blue Design school in North Sydney.<br />

Nikita worked hard to produce a design brief specifically for the<br />

scholarship application. This was in addition to her major works<br />

for Visual Arts and Design and Technology.<br />

What a great achievement!<br />

Another winner this year is Joshua Mallon-Pleace who won the Trainee of the Year<br />

award at the Illawarra VET awards recently. Joshua has been a Hospitality trainee<br />

at Murphy’s Bar and Grill. He has completed Cert II in Hospitality along with his<br />

HSC and has been offered a chef’s apprenticeship for 2011. We look forward to<br />

dining at his restaurant in the future and wish him well. Congratulations on your<br />

achievement.<br />

While Year 12 students await their HSC results, those not university bound have<br />

been working towards their futures in other areas and many have scored apprenticeships<br />

in such fields as construction, fitting and machining, horticulture, defence<br />

forces and RTA. Congratulations to you all. You have done yourselves, your parents<br />

and <strong>Holy</strong> <strong>Spirit</strong> proud.<br />
