It's my great pleasure to congratulate all of the winners of the Corangamite Medal, which celebrates the leaders of tomorrow in Corangamite schools, for 2018. There are more than 50 of them. I'm going to try and get through them all in the allotted time.

Very proudly, from our secondary schools: Liam Pohl, Bellarine Secondary College; Noor Al Assafi, Belmont High; Nicholas Boylan, Colac Secondary College; Ellie Murrant, Grovedale College; Noah Lingam and Caitlin O'Rourke, Lorne P-12; Suraya Bandari, Matthew Flinders; Lucy Tsitas, Oberon; Megan Stephenson, Saint Ignatius; William Magher, St Joseph's; and Mitchell Reither, Surf Coast Secondary College.

That was quite a list, but it is an incredible reflection on the wonderful contribution that our students play in the Corangamite electorate. The Corangamite Medal is a very important part of recognising student leadership, and I'm really proud to make that award, as I do each and every year. Thank you so much.
