TWO students from Hallam Senior College had their academic achievements honoured at the Premier’s VCE Awards ceremony.
Samantha Lee-Birch and Peter Stankovic received the awards during the event at Crown Palladium last month.
The awards were handed out to the state’s 28 top all-round VCE high achievers, who gained study scores of 46 or higher in at least five VCE studies in 2008 and 2009.
Samantha scored the award for her community services studies and Peter got his for his electronics work.
Samantha is completing a double degree in social work and health science at Monash University, while Peter is hoping to pursue a career path in computer networking.
Narre Warren North MP Luke Donnellan congratulated the students on their achievements.
“These young people have shown an impressive level of dedication and drive to reach their goals,” he said.
