One of the greatest privileges I have as your local Member of Parliament is celebrating the achievements of young people in our community. This month, I’ve had the joy of acknowledging Year 6 and Year 12 students from schools across the Narre Warren North electorate who have received my Respect & Integrity Award.
These awards are more than certificates, they represent the values that hold our community together. Respect and integrity are qualities that shape strong friendships, positive learning environments, and a future where kindness and honesty lead the way. When our students demonstrate these values, they set an example for all of us.
I am so proud of each recipient and the schools that nurture these principles every day. Please join me in congratulating the following students:
