Students from seven Mitchell Shire primary schools have been named recipients of NorCen Financial Services’ Community Bank student awards, recognising their demonstration of school and community values.
Schools nominated several students for the awards, with $500 then provided by Norcen’s Bendigo Bank branches at Wallan, Kilmore and Broadford to each school to distribute among the selected students.
NorCen community engagement and marketing officer Lee Day said the awards were another example of the Community Bank’s contribution to the wider community.
“From our perspective, it’s great to recognise those students in our community who have displayed those values on behalf of the school and in the community,” she said.
