The Governor-General’s Indigenous Student Teacher Scholarships
9 August 2010
Twelve Indigenous university students, from each state and territory in Australia, were presented with scholarship awards by the Governor-General, Ms Quentin Bryce AC, at Government House.
It is the first year that the Governor-General’s Indigenous Student Teacher Scholarships have been awarded and Ms Bryce said she felt “immensely proud to champion” them.
“Not only are you practitioners and advocates in the making, you are, each in your own right, due to your own accomplishments testament to the transformative power of education,” Ms Bryce said to the students.
Scholarship recipients and their families met with the Governor-General and Mr Michael Bryce AM AE after the presentations.
