Four former and current students across schools throughout Brimbank have received 2023 Victorian Certificate of Education (VCE) study awards on July 17.
The awards recognised the outstanding achievements of students completing the VCE, with study scores of 46 or above being celebrated.
Braybrook College alumni Ryan Pham received an award for his exceptional laboratory skills, and current year 12 student Matilda Crosbie was honoured for her achievements in psychology, after completing units three and four as a year 11 student last year.
Ryan, now studying for a science degree at the University of Melbourne, said his key to achieving the award was consistent studying and “doing a little bit every day.”
Matilda said she and her best friend motivate each other to study.
“I feel satisfied that my hard work last year has paid off,” she said.
Braybrook College assistant principal Arlene Bailey said the school’s staff and students were proud of Ryan and Matilda.
Also receiving study awards was St Albans Secondary College’s Kelly Lam for an outstanding completion of Biology, and Sunshine College’s Sara Banjanin for her work in the VCE VET course of Creative and Digital Media.
A total of 332 awards, including 23 Top All-Round VCE High Achiever Awards, recognised the exceptional dedication and hard work of 310 students during the 2023 VCE.
