The award is in memory of Stuart Stevenson. Stuart, an OBHS old boy who attended OBHS between 1970-74 is remembered by friends and family as 'a good bloke'. He was always reliable and cheerful, with a positive can do attitude. It is pleasing to see that Eli's Year 13 peers see the same qualities in a member of their cohort.
