Two Beaconhills College high-achieving students have received a prestigious Premier’s Award for excellence in their VCE subjects.
2024 graduate Charlotte Moseley, Berwick Campus, was honoured for her perfect 50 in Media, while current Year 12 student and Berwick Captain Manuth Galabada Widanarachchige earned his award for a 50 in Mathematical Methods, which he completed in Year 11.
Manuth also scored a perfect 50 in Physics in Year 11.
The students attended the awards ceremony on 2 July at the Melbourne Convention and Exhibition Centre, where more than 1000 guests celebrated Victoria’s top-performing 2024 VCE students for their outstanding academic results.
Manuth’s Maths teacher Lynne Keefer and Charlotte’s Media teacher Deb Spilsbury both attended the event, along with Berwick Campus Principal Sam Watson and the students’ families.
Manuth said he was honoured to receive the award.
He said achieving a perfect score in Maths was about “staying focused on the big picture.“
“Always stay consistent and don’t let little things put you down, like one bad SAC mark, or a silly arithmetic error,” Manuth advised.
Charlotte paid tribute to her teacher Deb Spilsbury, describing her as “one of the most thoughtful and considerate teachers I know.”
She recommended students pick the subjects they really enjoy.
This year, Charlotte is studying Architecture at Monash University.
