Congratulations Elise Nguyen for being a finalist in the 2024 Gold Coast Student Excellence Awards! Her amazing work over the course of the year saw her nominated and selected as a top 3 finalist in the fields of innovation and entrepreneurship. This competition is open to all students both in high school and university, needless to say it was very competitive (please see the attached image for descriptions of all the finalists' projects). As a grade 9 student, she was the youngest entrant in the field and did unfortunately miss out on the big award. With vigor, she vowed to try again. Good luck Elise and keep making us proud.
