Read the full storyProudly supporting the young minds of the region, the Cardwell RSL has recently awarded high achieving students across select schools within the Hinchinbrook Shire with a warmly welcomed bursary to aid with their transition into secondary education.
Each academic year, the Cardwell RSL kindly asks teachers to present successful and motivated students as notable candidates to receive a bursary to financially support the transition between Year 6 to Year 7.
“We have made this bursary available to three schools we have close connections with, the Cardwell State School, Kennedy State School, and the Murry River Upper State School,” explained Cardwell RSL President Lang Robert.
“The bursaries are awarded to appropriate students the teachers feel are worthy recipients, not necessarily because of academics, but specifically the children who try.”
Noticing the upfront expenses the shift from primary school to high school enrolment presents, members of the Cardwell RSL felt empowered to make a change in the lives of local families and support promising young students. Annually, the Cardwell RSL gifts $2,000 across the three schools as part of their celebrated bursary program, a wonderful initiative made possible by both the surrounding community and the club’s dedicated volunteers.
“The volunteers at the Cardwell RSL who work tirelessly, raised over $1,800, and we have donated this back into the Cardwell district and community,” added Lang.
“We’re just pleased to be able to help these kids out.”
Over the past few weeks Lang and members of the Cardwell RSL have been in attendance of Cardwell State School, Kennedy State School, and the Murry River Upper State School’s end of year assemblies to award students with the bursaries, with many members of the community strongly thanking the club for their support.
“Thank you to the Cardwell RSL for the difference you continue to make in our small community and thank you for your unwavering commitment to helping others,” shared the Cardwell State School.
