Hume Central Secondary College
Kathleen MATTHEWS-WARD (Broadmeadows) (10:10): I had the pleasure of presenting school leadership badges and meeting so many high-achieving 2023 graduates at Hume Central Secondary College, including dux Nadeen Abu Ghalyoun, who scored a 97.3 ATAR. As a refugee she has faced many challenges, but she still finds time to give back to the community. Along with her sister Doreen she volunteers with the Aiming High program run by Banksia Gardens.
