Student Leaderships Awards at Oatley West Public School

Mr MARK COURE (OatleyMinister for Multiculturalism, and Minister for Seniors)

——Speaker, I rise today to extend my warmest congratulations to the newly appointed Student Leadership team at Oatley West Public School. I recently visited Oatley West to meet the Leadership team and I must say, I was very impressed with the care, commitment, and dedication they showed to the role. I presented each of the students with a school leadership award and had an engaging chat about what they do as school leaders, which high schools they were going to and what type of future careers they were interested in. These are the future leaders of our country, and it is so important to nurture and develop these leadership skills. This ensures that the next generation is confident and competent to take on any challenge that may come their way. I would like to congratulate Avi Hockey, Zen Soto, Cristopher Jackson, Jemma Pekert, Sophia Mah and Elsie Gibb. It was fantastic getting to meet all of you and I wish you all the very best moving forward.
