Year 12 student Erin Cleaver claimed her third-straight HSHS Sportsperson of the Year Award at our TSP Awards Night held on November 14 after a standout performance at the Gold Coast Commonwealth Games in April where she won a silver medal for Australia in the Women's T38 Long Jump and placed 5th in the T38 100m final. Congratulations to Erin on this amazing achievement!
Congratulations also go to the 11 other Sportsperson of the Month winners who were tough competition for Erin after outstanding achievements throughout the year in their chosen sports, and to the many other students who were recognised on the night.
A big thank you to guest speakers Shannon Seebohm and Sam Poolman who shared their remarkable stories and experiences and inspired our students, parents and staff. Sam also presented her framed GIANTS Indigenous Round playing dress to the school. The dress was designed by Year 11 student Krystal Dallinger and will take pride of place in our new netball court.
