At our first College Assembly on Friday, 11 March, the College Dux for 2021 was announced as Jennifer Nothdurft who was present to accept her award and address the staff, students and special guests.

Jennifer gave inspiration to the students with advice, particularly to the Year 12 students encouraging them to strive to achieve their best and to ask for help from teachers when needed. Jennifer accepted the Dalby Friendly Society Dispensary bursary of $2000 from Mrs Helen Stagg, FSD Board Member as well as the WDRC financial bursary of $250 from Senior Years Assistant Principal, Mr Rodney Spain.
