St Declan's Catholic Primary School

Mr MARK COURE (Oatley) (16:51:27):

I acknowledge the wonderful students at St Declan's Catholic Primary School in Penshurst who graduated last year as the class of 2020. Despite the COVID-19 pandemic disrupting classroom learning, students still achieved outstanding results, which teachers, parents and staff were extremely proud of. In particular, I mention Michael Williams and Eden Babakian, who received the school's New South Wales parliamentary awards for 2020. The students received the awards for embodying St Declan's values and for their growth mindset for the future. That is an outstanding achievement. It was an honour to present the awards at the graduation and end-of-year mass. I have no doubt that Michael, Eden and all the students from the class of 2020 will go on to achieve outstanding things in the future. I wish them all the best for high school and beyond.
