Bowen State High School Student Isaiah Howell has been praised by the Bowen community for receiving the Premier’s ANZAC Prize.
Last week, Principal Mr Harris and Isaiah had the honour of celebrating at Parliament House alongside Isaiah’s family, Queensland Premier David Crisafulli and the other students privileged to be shortlisted.
Friends and family took to Facebook to congratulate Isaiah on his wonderful achievement.
“Thank you Bowen State High School for supporting Isaiah throughout the entire process of this amazing opportunity. This is certainly going to be a life changing experience,” said Melinda Howell.
The Premier’s ANZAC Prize is an annual award that offers talented students an exciting opportunity to develop their research skills, attend workshops and participate in community events in preparation for a 2-week tour to Europe to visit historical sites and key World War I memorials. The tour culminates with attendance at the nationally televised ANZAC Dawn Service near Villers-Bretonneux on the Western Front.
