Scholarships & student work

Two scholarship awards every year, and the craft work of Mount Waddy students.

The MIC Scholarship Award

The MIC Scholarship Award honors two deserving students at Mount Waddy Primary School with support for their education. Since 2014 the award has been presented three times, and our goal is to present it every year. We congratulate and honor every recipient.

At the families' request, we don't publish the recipients' names.
