We are incredibly proud of our students who define success in their own unique ways.
While completing Year 12, Class of 2018 student Riley Collier-Dawkins was picked by Richmond in the 2018 AFL draft. Riley reflects, “I have appreciated having teachers who are able to assist me in maintaining a balance between football and other parts of my life.” We wish Riley good luck with his next big step with Richmond. Channelling the spirit of Don Bosco in devoting his time to those less fortunate, Sheneth Fernando (Class of 2018) volunteered with the Oakleigh Connections Program for the entire six years of his education at Salesian College.
Every Friday at lunchtime, Sheneth welcomed Oakleigh Connections visitors with intellectual disabilities to our school. “As a student with a disability myself, I feel a connection with our visitors. I return every Friday to show compassion and loyalty to them”, reflects Sheneth.
Billy Drakopoulos is another student of the Class of 2018 who challenged himself beyond the classroom, achieving an ATAR score of 92.5 and Dux of Psychology while undertaking an extension program at Monash University. While completing this extension program, Billy was also a key contributor to the 2018 College Production. Mum, Pam Drakopoulos reflects, “The opportunity to study at Monash has enriched Billy and provided him with organisational skills that he will develop throughout his life. We also thank Billy’s teachers, who have mentored him and supported him in so many ways. We are forever grateful to Salesian.”
