Sports Scholarships to Queens University of Charlotte, North Carolina USA
What is the most valuable lesson you learned at PLC Sydney?
I learned the value of service to the community, especially those less fortunate than ourselves and the importance of having integrity and purpose in everything I do.
I do triathlon which is three sports, therefore I spend a lot of time exercising. Balancing my academics with sport has been very important for me because I use sport as a break from school - a chance to go into a different type of focus. Sport has also helped me to form more strict schedules and structure my days more effectively.
In 5 years time I see myself finishing university (or to have finished already) and to have earned my elite licence for triathlon. I hope that during the next 5 years I am able to take part in some form of community service such as environment clean ups or volunteering to help the homeless or animal shelters.
