 John MULLAHY (Glen Waverley) (09:59): Each year I have the privilege of presenting the Jan Kennedy Award to community-minded students from schools across the Glen Waverley district. It is always inspiring to see the leadership, generosity and civic spirit of young people in our community. I congratulate this year’s recipients Claire Zheng, Emme Lin, Felix Philips, Gabrielle Andrews, Ishita Singh, Krish Bhoina, Loretta Nervosa, Mary Elise Cheah, Max Barter, Michael Bilton-Roos, Olivia Phillips, Rose Bele, Sadheesha Gunesekara, Stephanie Konstantokopoulos and Zachary Corga. Each of these students has demonstrated a genuine commitment to their school communities, and they should be incredibly proud of their achievements.
