Natalie SULEYMAN (St Albans – Minister for Veterans, Minister for Small Business and Employment, Minister for Youth) (10:01): On another matter, I would like to acknowledge Deniz Daymen from St Albans Secondary College. Deniz achieved an exceptional ATAR score of 99.65, placing him among the top VCE performers in the state. Thanks to this remarkable effort, Deniz has secured the prestigious Hansen Scholarship at Melbourne University for 2025, where he will pursue his passion for science and engineering. This scholarship was made possible through the nomination from his year 11 chemistry teacher and the generous support of Western Chances, an organisation dedicated to supporting young people in Melbourne’s west to overcome financial barriers. I congratulate Deniz for his achievement and wish him the very best as he continues to excel. And thank you very much to St Albans Secondary College.
