Sir Peter Blake Young Leader Award Winner 2018 - Sam Hicks

By Nick Leith | Posted: Wednesday July 25, 2018

Each year, Casebrook presents one of our students with the Sir Peter Blake Young Leader Award.

Sam is an exceptional leader in our school. 

His approachable and warm personality ensures that Sam is a presence in all parts of our school and his connection with students crosses many aspects of daily school life. As the lead guitarist and singer in our school rock band, Sam demonstrates an enthusiasm to lead from the front in his performances. 

Sam is a key member of our environment group, coordinating and supporting his peers to maintain our edible gardens and surrounding orchard. This group contains a number of students who require extra social support and Sam is a great role model to these students. 

Sam gets on with everyone! In class, he works hard on his studies and in our student leadership team, he contributes a positive and can-do mindset to everything asked of him.

Sam is a true reflection of our Casebrook REP values and a perfect candidate to receive the Sir Peter Blake Leadership Award for 2018.
