I am so proud of these kids. They will try anything. I love working with them.
I have travelled to Wagga five times over the years to visit my sister Debbie Lihou who works with these amazing students. I hear weekly from her how rewarding and what an what an honor and privilege it is for her to be a part of their success. The people I have met in Wagga including some teachers are among the finest and most dedicated people I have ever know. I hope the judges will consider the great work being done for these students at Kooringal High School. They have a world wide reputation
