  On 2 September I attended the De La Salle College, Revesby Heights, HSC showcase. It was a terrific night, and I just want to reflect on it a bit this afternoon. I was able to present awards to the students on their achievements on the evening. A large number of people were in attendance—a lot of proud parents and community members looking at the HSC artworks, some of the industrial design and other matters. Catering was done by the hospitality students at the school, who did a great job.

I would like to congratulate the following Year 12 students who received awards on the evening. The people's choice award for music went to Tuitavake Manoa. The award for industrial timber technology: Matthew Greentree was successful in winning that award, and for visual arts, Blake Riddell. I would like to thank the school for hosting the evening, in particular the principal, Mr Tim Logue, Mr Paul Finneran, the Assistant Principal and MC on the night. In particular I thank Ms Michelle Greco, the Creative and Performing Arts Coordinator, who put together what was quite an impressive and substantial event. I want to thank her for her hard work in organising the evening. De La Salle College, Revesby Heights, is one of the largest and strongest schools in my community, and I congratulate everyone who was involved in the showcase evening.
