Continued success in National Geography Competition

Mr Mike Keevers | Head of Humanities

This year students from Year 8 to 12 entered into the National Geography Competition, sponsored by The Royal Geographical Society of Queensland, The University of Queensland and The Australian Geography Teachers Association. The College has been entering students into the competition for over twenty years, and I am delighted to see that our success has continued.

A total of 73,000 students entered into the competition from all states and territories across Australia. Our top student was Joshua Crow from Year 11, who achieved a result that placed him in the top 1% in Australia. In all, the College received 5 Credits, 12 distinctions and 6 high distinctions. This is an outstanding effort from our students. Recognition too, to our teachers who assisted these students in receiving these results.

The awards will be presented to the students at the next available assembly.
