Joanna Li recognised as Outstanding Scholar

Our Deputy Head Girl, Joanna Li (Year 13), has been recognised as a 2021 Outstanding Scholar, putting her in the top 60 candidates nationwide for last year's NCEA examinations. 

Although she won't be attending tertiary studies this year, Joanna would have qualified for a monetary award of $5,000 per year for up to three years. Congratulations, Joanna!
