With no awards ceremony for the second year in a row over Covid, the students each received their awards personally from Auburn Review manager George Dagher who made the trips to each of their schools last week.
“I can see plenty of future prime ministers and community leaders among them; they are all mature beyond their years,” he said.
“Year after year I am impressed with the award winners who are all striving to make their own dreams come true but still find the time to help others along the way.
“These young people will be recognised by the entire community as achievers and regarded as role models among their peers now and in the many years to come.”
The awards, now in their 42nd year, have been made possible with the support of Laing+Simmons Auburn Lidcombe and Dooleys Lidcombe.
Laing+Simmons Auburn Lidcombe Principal Themy Panagiotidis says he believes the future is in great hands.
“The list of students’ achievements was very impressive,” he said.
“They are all a real credit to their teachers, parents and themselves.”
Dooleys Chairman John Munce said: “We congratulate all of the recipients on their achievements, as they are the future leaders in our community.
“They are also an example to others that when you strive and work hard, rewards will come your way.”
